Background: Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) using radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a standard-of-care treatment in the rhythm control strategy of symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF). Ablation protocols, varying in the power and duration of energy delivery, have changed rapidly in recent years. Very high-power very short-duration ablation (vHPvSD) is expected to shorten procedural times compared to conventional ablation approaches. However, the existing data suggest that this might come at the cost of lower first-pass isolation rates, a predictor of poor ablation long-term outcomes. This study aims to compare a vHPvSD protocol to a hybrid strategy, in which the power and duration of the energy transfer are adapted depending on the anatomical location. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed procedural and outcome data from 93 patients (55 vHPvSD vs. 38 hybrid) scheduled for de novo pulmonary vein isolation. A vHPvSD ablation protocol (90 Watt (W), 4 s) was compared to a hybrid protocol using vHPvSD on the posterior wall and 50 W HPSD (high-power short-duration) ablation guided by the Ablation Index along the remaining spots. Results: Ablation times were significantly shorter in the vHPvSD cohort (5.4 min. vs. 14.2 min, p < 0.001), thus resulting in a significant reduction in the overall procedural duration (91 min vs. 106 min, p = 0.003). The non-significant slightly higher first-pass isolation rates in the vHPvSD cohort (85% vs. 76%, p = 0.262) did not affect freedom from AF 6 months after the procedure (83% vs. 87%, p = 0.622). Conclusions: vHPvSD helps in shortening the PVI procedural duration, thus neither affecting first-pass isolation rates nor freedom from atrial tachyarrhythmia recurrence at 6 months after the index procedure.
