Targeting Atrial Fibrillation: Pulsed Field Ablation at Penn Medicine
Update: 2025-04-08
Description
Electrocardiologist Matthew A. Bernabei, MD, examines the history of ablation for atrial fibrillation and its latest iteration, pulsed field ablation, or PFA. Now available at Penn Medicine, PFA uses an electrical field rather than radiofrequency or cryotherapy to treat the aberrant signals that are the source of Afib. Unlike other ablation modalities, PFA is cardio-selective, and thus poses little risk to structures near the heart, including the esophagus.
