2017 HRS/EHRA/ECAS/APHRS/SOLAECE expert consensus statement on catheter and surgical ablation of atrial fibrillation (2017, background): “The identification by Haissaguerre and colleagues of triggers that initiate AF within the PVs led to prevention of AF recurrence by catheter ablation at the site of the origin of the trigger.(197,430,431,432,433) Direct catheter ablation of the triggers was limited by the infrequency with which AF i”
2012 HRS/EHRA/ECAS expert consensus statement on catheter and surgical ablation of atrial fibrillation: recommendations for patient selection, procedural techniques, patient management and follow-up, definitions, endpoints, and research trial design (2012, methodology): “To overcome these limitations, an ablation approach was introduced by Haissaguerre and colleagues [204] that was designed to electrically isolate the PV myocardium.”
