Ablation-index guided versus conventional contact-force guided ablation in pulmonary vein isolation – Systematic review and meta-analysis

Background: Contact-force sensing catheter is widely used for catheter ablation, however, it did not take account of radiofrequency power. Ablation index (AI) is a novel marker incorporating contact force-time-power, was shown to be reliable in predicting lesion size and depth for radiofrequency del...
