It uses short, high-voltage electrical pulses to selectively ablate cardiomyocytes. PFA has demonstrated a high safety profile with reduced complication rates compared to thermal ablation.\n\nThermal ablation of parasympathetic ganglia during conventional pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) may improve long-term procedural outcomes by reducing AF recurrence. However, due to its non-thermal nature, PFA may not significantly affect cardiac autonomic innervation, which could be clinically relevant in vagally mediated AF or tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome.\n\nThis randomized study compares two strategies: (1) PFA-only PVI, and (2) PFA combined with selective thermal ablation (radiofrequency energy) of the superior paraseptal parasympathetic ganglion. The primary objective is to evaluate whether adjunctive thermal ablation improves clinical outcomes and reduces intraprocedural bradyarrhythmic events.",[81],"Atrial Fibrillation (Paroxysmal)",[83,84,85],"Atrial fibrillation","Pulsed Field Ablation","Cardioneuroablation","2025-09-07",{"date":88,"type":89},"2025-09-12","ACTUAL",{"date":91,"type":89},"2025-05-26",{"date":93,"type":75},"2026-09-30",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
