pulmonary vein isolation recently wrote me that they felt a lot of pain from the ablation burns. If you are in A-Fib during the Catheter Ablation procedure pulmonary vein isolation, it's relatively easy for the doctors to determine where the A-Fib signals are coming from and to ablate (remove) them. However pulmonary vein isolation, if you have intermittent A-Fib (Paroxysmal A-Fib) pulmonary vein isolation, it's harder to pinpoint exactly the source(s) of the A-Fib signals. The challenge for doctors is how to locate and eliminate A-Fib signals when the patient is not in A-Fib. Since research has shown that almost all A-Fib signals come from the openings (ostia) of the four Pulmonary Veins in the left atrium pulmonary vein isolation, one technique is to make Circular Radiofrequency (RF) Ablation lines around each pulmonary vein opening (called "Circumferential" or "Empirical Ablation"). This isolates the pulmonary veins from the rest of the heart and prevents any pulses from these veins from getting into the heart. However pulmonary vein isolation, it's difficult to make circular RF lesions and they aren't always.
