Value of high-output pace-mapping of the right phrenic nerve for enabling safe radiofrequency ablation of atrial fibrillation: insights from three-dimensional computed tomography segmentation.

These data emphasize the utility of high-output pace-mapping of the RPN. Non-capture at 50 mA/2 ms demonstrated very high specificity for predicting a distance to the RPN > 10 mm, ensuring safe radiofrequency delivery.
