Summary

Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) has limited success. The superior vena cava (SVC) has been identified as one of the most common non-pulmonary vein triggers for PAF. It is estimated that SVC isolation (SVCI) could improve the clinical results of patients with PAF. However, results from previous studies about SVCI remain controversial. Safety concerns for SVCI may outweigh its benefits and lead to inadequate ablation. To address this issue, the introduction of a quantitative ablation index (AI) for SVCI may provide a solution. Therefore, the investigators sought to initiate a retrospective, multi-center study, to explore the efficacy and safety of quantitative SVCI in addition to PVI in PAF.
