Four typical pulmonary venous pressure curves displaying the level of occlusion during atrial fibrillation ablation by cryoballoon

BACKGROUND: Cryoballoon ablation is safe and effective for pulmonary vein isolation in patients with symptomatic drug‐refractory paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. To monitor adhesion between the balloon and the pulmonary vein, an alternative technique to pulmonary venography is to analyze changes in t...

description BACKGROUND: Cryoballoon ablation is safe and effective for pulmonary vein isolation in patients with symptomatic drug‐refractory paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. To monitor adhesion between the balloon and the pulmonary vein, an alternative technique to pulmonary venography is to analyze changes in the pressure curve. METHODS: We have described the adhesion level characterized by four types of pressure waveforms. RESULTS: These correlated with the extent of contrast agent leakage (Cohen's kappa of 0.81 [IC 95%: 0.63–0.99]). CONCLUSION: Monitoring the venous pressure curve is easy to perform and has the advantage of being able to detect balloon movement during the first few seconds of treatment.
