Summary

This study compared two advanced heart-mapping systems, RHYTHMIA and CARTO, in 49 adults undergoing a repeat procedure (redo ablation) for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. The main goal was to see how accurately each system could identify gaps from previous ablation lines. Researchers also tracked whether patients stayed free from AF after treatment.
