Atrial Fibrillation Energy Sources and Ablation Approaches – Who Gets What?

Tuesday, September 17, 2024

12:45 PM – 1:45 PM CT

Location: Fredericksburg A-C

CE: 1

CME: (1) CNE: (1) ASRT: (1) COP: (1) CPHQ: (1) ACHE: (1) AAPA: (1) AANP: (1)

Join us as we compare and contrast AFib ablation energy types (i.e., radiofrequency energy, Cryoenergy, Pulsed Field, and Laser energy). You will leave with a clearer picture of how different energy sources are applied in clinical practice and their value.

Learning Objectives:

Identify one difference between AFib energy sources.
Demonstrate the different modalities of the AFib ablation procedure.
Assess the purpose and future directions of pulsed field ablation technology.
