Clinical Study on the Risk of Left Atrial POP Ablation and Esophageal Injury Under Ultra-High Power and Related Influencing Parameters

The ultra-high-power ablation group will use the QDOT ablation catheter with a power of 90W, ablation points at site 3, inter-point distance maintained at 4-5mm, pressure maintained at 5-30g. The cold saline flow rate during ablation is 8ml/min, and the ablation device will adjust power and saline flow rate based on the electrode temperature at the tip of the QDOT ablation catheter. The target temperature is 60°C, and the cut-off temperature is 65°C, with an ablation endpoint of 4 seconds.

The high-power ablation group will use the STSF ablation catheter with a power of 50W, ablation points at site 3, inter-point distance maintained at 4-5mm, pressure maintained at 5-30g, and a cold saline flow rate of 15ml/min during ablation. The ablation endpoint for the posterior wall of the left atrium is an Ablation Index (AI) value of 360-410, for the anterior wall 450-480, and for the bottom and top of the left atrium 420-450.
