Pulsed field ablation (PFA) using high-voltage electrical energy is a novel and powerful ablation modality. However, PFA as a first-line rhythm control in atrial fibrillation (AF) has been rarely described; whether PFA interacts with the pacemaker (PM) has been seldom reported. We reported PFA of AF in a patient with PM who needed effective rhythm control. Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) was successfully performed without complication, and the procedure was extremely fast (skin-to-skin 25 min.) with short fluoroscopic time (3.9 min). PFA had no influence on the PM function. Six months' follow-up showed good clinical outcome and significantly decreased AF burden.
脉冲场消融(PFA)使用高压电能,是一种新颖且强大的消融方式。然而,PFA 作为心房颤动(AF)的一线节律控制手段很少被描述;PFA 是否与起搏器(PM)相互作用也很少被报道。我们报告了一例 PM 患者的 AF 的 PFA 治疗,该患者需要有效的节律控制。PVI 成功完成,无并发症,手术过程非常迅速(皮肤到皮肤 25 分钟),透视时间短(3.9 分钟)。PFA 对 PM 功能没有影响。6 个月的随访显示出良好的临床结果,并显著降低了 AF 负担。
