Articles and abstracts
Pre-clinical and clinical experience reported in published papers has demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of CryoTherapy. Studies have demonstrated the unique characteristics of CryoTherapy, including electrical reversibility, unparalleled catheter stability, reduced risk of thrombosis and stenosis, and the preservation of tissue integrity. Clinical Experience has also confirmed the safety of CryoMapping and CryoAblation around critical or delicate structures of the heart, such as the AV node and pulmonary veins.
For details on the efficacy and safety of CryoTherapy in the clinical treatment of arrhythmias, consult the papers or abstracts listed below.
