Pulse Field Ablation for Afib at age 80
I recently saw an EP Afib specialist at main campus Cleveland Clinic who said that ablation after age 80 has not been advised. But with pulse field ablation, they are successfully doing them after age 80. She outlined the various risks at every step of the procedure which add up. I am an 80 year old female in pretty good physical shape but with various other health conditions. Has anyone in this group had a PFA at 80 or older and could relate their experience? I appreciate this group! Mary B.
