Description
I Deisenhofer and colleagues trace five years of ablation workflow change across Europe and India through a device registry, reported in 2026. Just over three thousand patients treated for atrial fibrillation, supraventricular rhythms, or ventricular arrhythmia were enrolled between 2020 and 2024. Patient profiles stayed broadly similar across the period.
Total procedure times held steady, while energy delivery times, lesion patterns, power levels, and sedation choices shifted by indication. Conscious sedation rose sharply for ventricular cases. Safety stayed constant overall, recurrence fell for one rhythm group, and acute success climbed for ventricular ablation. New catheters and high-power techniques drove much of the change.
