1.2
Healthcare professionals should enter details about everyone having pulsed-field ablation for atrial fibrillation onto a suitable registry. This should include details of patient selection, the technology used and longer-term outcomes.
Why the committee made these recommendations
Evidence shows the procedure reduces atrial fibrillation and its symptoms, increases quality of life in the short term, and is safe. More data collection would be useful to guide patient selection and to see how well the procedure works to prevent long-term complications of atrial fibrillation, such as stroke.
