Esophageal Temperature During PVI Using Q-DOT Micro (NCT06392932)
Esophageal Temperature Dynamics and Injury During Pulmonary Vein Isolation With Temperature Controlled Very-High-Power Short-Duration Lesions Using the Novel Q-DOT Micro Ablation Catheter
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This study will assess how two different ablation strategies, using two different ablation catheters during catheter ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, affect the temperature of the esophagus during ablation, and the risk of injury to the esophagus.
