1 Figure 1 Pulmonary vein anatomical locations
Figure 1 Pulmonary vein anatomical locations. The regions around the right and left pulmonary veins are anatomically segmented in the left atrium. LIPV, left inferior pulmonary vein; LSPV, left superior pulmonary vein; RIPV, right inferior pulmonary vein; RSPV, right superior pulmonary vein. From: Safety and efficiency of porous-tip contact-force catheter for drug-refractory symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation ablation: results from the SMART SF trial Europace.

2 Figure 2 Patient disposition
Figure 2 Patient disposition. The flow chart presents the number of patients eligible for inclusion in the safety and mITT populations. AAD, antiarrhythmic drug; AF, atrial fibrillation; mITT, modified intent-to-treat; RF, radiofrequency; TEE, transoesophageal echocardiogram; TIA, transient ischaemic attack.

3 Figure 3 Box plot shows (A) average contact force and (B) ablation index per VISITAG™ Module points by pulmonary vein (PV) anatomical location. The average contact force applied at each PV anatomical region shown in Figure 1 is plotted*. B shows that investigators used lower ablation index average values to achieve a successful radiofrequency ablation at the posterior anatomical location compared with other locations* (safety population, n = 159). * Left atrium anatomical locations: anterior (left anterior segment + right anterior segment); inferior (left inferior segment + right inferior segment); posterior (left posterior segment + right posterior segment); ridge (left atrial appendage ridge segment); roof (left roof segment + right roof segment). PV, pulmonary vein. From: Safety and efficiency of porous-tip contact-force catheter for drug-refractory symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation ablation: results from the SMART SF trial Europace.
