Catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation has improved in part due to advances in technology and techniques. Improved power delivery through contact force and irrigation and new balloon-based catheter systems for pulmonary vein isolation have resulted in greater success in paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. New tools are under development to facilitate understanding targets for ablation in persistent atrial fibrillation and create permanent ablation lesions safely and quickly.
房颤的导管消融术有所改进，部分原因是技术和技巧的进步。通过接触力和灌注实现的更好的能量输送以及用于肺静脉隔离的新型基于球囊的导管系统，已使阵发性房颤的成功率更高。正在研发新工具，以促进对持续性房颤消融靶点的理解，并安全、快速地形成永久性消融灶。
