In this comparative preliminary study, two different mapping technologies to detect repetitive atrial activation during ongoing AF were used. Whereas rotational activation was documented using FIRM mapping no corresponding repetitive activation patterns near sites of FIRM-mapped rotor cores were identified using the novel mapping technology even though using the same electrogram characteristics and mapping basket position.
