Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) has created a 'paradigm shift' within cardiac electrophysiology and the initial experience demonstrates that PFA is safe, rapid and effective compared to both radiofrequency ablation and cryoablation in atrial fibrillation (AF). Presently, AF ablation procedures in the UK using PFA are routinely performed using general anaesthetic (GA) support requiring an anaesthetist and ODP being present in all procedures. This need significantly limits the ability to use PFA technology to perform AF ablations, particularly in centres that have limited availability of GA provision. The need for GA also leads to extended patient recovery time post procedure which impacts patient throughput and has the potential to reduce hospital bed availability. The need for GA and the potential to limit patient throughput has negative implications for all hospitals in terms of cost. PFA
