Double Transseptal Puncture for Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation: Safety of the Technique and Its Use in the Outpatient Setting
Introduction. For pulmonary vein isolation in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), some centers use the double transseptal puncture technique for catheter access in order to facilitate catheter manipulation within the left atrium. However, no safety data has so far been published using this appro...
