Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is the method of choice for the treatment of drug-resistant atrial fibrillation (AF). However, arrhythmia recurrences are frequently due to suboptimal lesions formation and pulmonary vein reconnection. Contact force (CF)- and remote magnetic navigation (RMN)-guided catheters are both capable of improving contact and energy transfer to the tissue, possibly improving PVI outcome.
