Abstract
Active and ground catheter tip orientation and type are important determinants of lesion sizes during bRFA. The largest and deepest lesions, without a higher incidence of steam pops, were achieved using 2 irrigated catheters. As the largest published series to date, bRFA ablation can be performed safely and effectively in humans. Larger studies are necessary to better evaluate bRFA efficacy and safety.
