Pulmonary vein isolation using multi-electrode radiofrequency vs conventional point-by-point radiofrequency ablation: A meta-analysis of randomized and non-randomized studies

Aims: Pulmonary vein isolation is effective in reducing atrial fibrillation (AF) episodes. Previous studies suggest single-shot techniques are effective and safe for this purpose. Procedural and clinical outcomes were compared between multi-electrode and point-by-point radiofrequency ablations by pe...
