BackgroundPulmonary vein isolation (PVI) constitutes the established strategy for atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. With the advent of PV stenosis risk-free pulsed field ablation (PFA), we explored the feasibility and safety of additional ablation within PV sleeves (PVA). Moreover, we assessed the durability of PVI through PFA in a deep sedation setting, comparing a 3D Electroanatomical Mapping (3D-EAM)-based navigation approach with the standard fluoroscopy-based one. MethodsIn this single-ce...
