Reduced continuity index with proactive esophageal cooling compared to luminal temperature monitoring during radiofrequency ablation

Reduced continuity index with proactive esophageal cooling compared to luminal temperature monitoring during radiofrequency ablation

Background: Proactive esophageal cooling is Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared to reduce the likelihood of esophageal injury during radiofrequency ablation for treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). Long-term follow-up data have also shown improved freedom from arrhythmia with proactive esop...
