Summary
According to data from high volume Centres, documentation of entry block with the Achieve catheter may be possible in only about to 50% of pulmonary veins. The investigators aim to assess strategies using the Achieve catheter that can improve this performance.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- all consecutive patients undergoing atrial fibrillation cryoballoon ablation monitored with the Achieve catheter.
Exclusion Criteria
