Sumario:This article describes the advances in catheter ablation for AF that have allowed the creation of more durable and efficient lesions. It describes advances in high-power, short-duration radiofrequency ablation, radiofrequency balloon devices, ultra-low cryoablation and irreversible electroporation. It also considers the way these devices may change the way catheter ablation is performed for AF.
