Moderate AI-guided catheter ablation is highly effective for the treatment of drug-refractory paroxysmal AF in real-world settings. Over 90% of patients achieved single-procedure arrhythmia-free survival at 1 year. The outcome was obtained without major complications and the procedure involved relatively short procedure and ablation times.
