Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common tachycardia arrhythmia in clinical practice. Catheter ablation has been one of the most effective established therapies for AF. In recent years, cryoballoon ablation (CBA) is a novel technique of AF treatment. Much experience in the operations, therapeutic parameters, and the prevention against complications has been gained during the process of clinical application and promotion. Chinese Society of Pacing and Electrophysiology and Chinese Society of Arrhythmias organized experts, jointly initiated, and compiled “The interpretation of CBA of AF: Consensus of Chinese experts,” aiming to standardize and promote the clinical application of CBA. Based on the real-world situation in China, this article interprets and reviews the important contents of this consensus, combined with the domestic and overseas guidelines, consensus, and recent literature on AF management.
