MedCity article: How pulsed-field ablation can transform the treatment of atrial fibrillation

[Breezera]

Hello All. I discovered today a new article which I'm sure will be of interest to many here who suffer with AF and are considering a cardiac ablation at some point in the future. Here's the link to the article:

One extra weight on the side of postponing an ablation, thanks Richard.

Hi Breezera,Thanks, certainly looks interesting. However, it looks to be some time away still.

A clinical trial in the US, being monitored in the UK by the HRA, does not complete until December 2022.

My EP has been involved in trials of this technology and he likes it a lot. He says it's 6-18 months away from FDA approval, but if one has the luxury of waiting, that would make sense, however for those whose arrhythmia is more advanced, so it may be harder to correct, he recommends getting an ablation with the current technology.

Thanks for up-to-date information.

Why not go to the BEST Doctor there is out there who can heal those of us with AFIB with a 100% efficacy rate. It may cost us a lot more than expected but the outcome is marvelous and will prove more effective than getting an rf or a pfa and is much safer. Anyone can go to the Doctor whose name is JESUS CHRIST and HE will give you immediate relief and assurance that you are getting the BEST treatment known to man. GOD BLESS YOU ALL. P.S. I've had AFIB for over 30 years and the only way I can deal with it is through the DR. advice I just mentioned to you.

I understood from my EP they are trialling it in the UK at Oxford. Might be worth checking out
