Methods.<\/jats:italic> Three hundred thirty-six patients with symptomatic paroxysmal AF underwent PVI by irrigated point-by-point radiofrequency (RF) ablation (RMN, n<\/mml:mi>=<\/mml:mo>114<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math> versus MAN, n<\/mml:mi>=<\/mml:mo>222<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math>). Patients were followed up with symptom guided rhythm monitoring for a period up to 43 months. The end point of the study was freedom from repeat ablation after a single procedure and without antiarrhythmic drug treatment (ADT). Results.<\/jats:italic> At the end of follow-up (median 26.3 months), freedom from repeat ablation was comparable between RMN and MAN (70.9% versus 69.5%, p<\/mml:mi>=<\/mml:mo>0.61<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math>). At repeat, mean number of reconnected veins was 2.4 \u00b1 1.2 in RMN versus 2.6 \u00b1 1.0 in MAN (p<\/mml:mi>=<\/mml:mo>0.08<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math>). The majority of repeat procedures occurred during the first year (82.1% in RMN versus 78.5% in MAN; p<\/mml:mi>=<\/mml:mo>0.74<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math>). Conclusion.<\/jats:italic> On the long term (up to 3 years) and in a large cohort of patients with paroxysmal AF, RMN-guided PVI is as effective as MAN guided PVI. In both strategies the majority of repeat procedures occurred during the first year after index procedure.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2017\/6323729","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,3,13]],"date-time":"2017-03-13T18:00:36Z","timestamp":1489428036000},"page":"1-6","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Remote Magnetic versus Manual Navigation for Radiofrequency Ablation of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation: Long-Term, Controlled Data in a Large Cohort"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2017","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1554-5516","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Vikas","family":"Kataria","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, St. Jan Hospital Bruges, Ruddershove 10, 8000 Bruges, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Benjamin","family":"Berte","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, St. Jan Hospital Bruges, Ruddershove 10, 8000 Bruges, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yves","family":"Vandekerckhove","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, St. Jan Hospital Bruges, Ruddershove 10, 8000 Bruges, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rene","family":"Tavernier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, St. Jan Hospital Bruges, Ruddershove 10, 8000 Bruges, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8451-0013","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Mattias","family":"Duytschaever","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, St. Jan Hospital Bruges, Ruddershove 10, 8000 Bruges, Belgium"},{"name":"University Hospital of Ghent, Ghent, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/europace\/euq350"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.hrthm.2010.09.074"},{"key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/CIRCEP.110.942672"},{"key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/CIRCEP.110.957803"},{"key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4070\/kcj.2011.41.5.248"},{"key":"6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/europace\/euq344"},{"key":"8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00392-011-0333-0"},{"key":"9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10840-012-9672-7"},{"key":"10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/europace\/eut058"},{"key":"11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijcard.2013.08.086"},{"key":"12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2010.01750.x"}],"container-title":["BioMed Research International"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/bmri\/2017\/6323729.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/bmri\/2017\/6323729.xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/bmri\/2017\/6323729.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2017,3,13]],"date-time":"2017-03-13T18:00:37Z","timestamp":1489428037000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.hindawi.com\/journals\/bmri\/2017\/6323729\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017]]},"references-count":11,"alternative-id":["6323729","6323729"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2017\/6323729","relation":{},"ISSN":["2314-6133","2314-6141"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"2314-6133"},{"type":"electronic","value":"2314-6141"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017]]}}}
