It’s amazing to see consistent information across populations

Recapitulating data from CIRCA-DOSE the recent Advantage AF showed AF burden <0.1% & AF episodes less <1h on follow-up had HCU comparable to no AF

Same threshold paroxysmal and Persistent AF

The catheter moves very well, I had a steerable sheath but didn't really use it. Baseline voltage (in flutter) shown here. Not totally cleaned up in this image as the patches in rspv and right carina were artifact but mappers are learning too
