PFA….when will it be available

Posted by katiekateny @katiekateny, Dec 11 6:38am

I cannot have a traditional ablation. My esophagus is just too small for the temperature monitor. So, only a PFA is possible for me….but…

None of the heart specialists near me (within 200 miles) have hospitals or clinic that are authorized to use this.

Anyone have info on when this procedure will be commonly more widely available? What is the hold up?

The nearest mayo clinic to me is 340 miles. Cleveland clinic is more than 1000 miles. The closest city to me is El Paso at 110 miles. I like living where there is no rush hour, no crowds…but, this is the down side.
