Utility of Analyzing Atrial Signal Electrograms in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Using Next-Generation Ensite X Software: a Prospective Study

"The catheter ablation strategy is the same as the current treatment approach in patients with AF, according to the consensus of catheter ablation of AF. All procedures will be performed under local sedation or general anesthesia depending on the operator, and each patient will undergo an electrophysiological study and substrate mapping in the fasting state with adequate pre-ablation anticoagulation and transesophageal echocardiography to rule out LA thrombus. All antiarrhythmic drugs except amiodarone will be discontinued for at least 5 half-lives before the procedure.~Step I: Substrate mapping before ablation, Step II: Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), Step III: Post-ablation mapping in SR immediately after ablation, Step IV: Inducibility after ablation, Step V: Remmaping 30 minutes after ablation"
