Is your AFib ablation really working—or just temporarily masking the problem?
In this video, I answer one of the most common questions I get:
"How do I know if my AFib ablation was successful—and how soon would I need another?"

We'll break down:
- Why multiple ablations might be a sign of incomplete treatment
- The difference between energy sources: radiofrequency, cryoablation, and pulsed field ablation
- Why the "blanking period" (first 3–4 months post-ablation) matters
- How AFib is like a forest fire—and why some procedures fail to put it out
- The importance of lesion set complexity and EP skill over the tools used
- The role of anti-arrhythmic drugs and how they can mask (not eliminate) AFib
- When to truly consider a second ablation

If you or a loved one is living with AFib, this video will give you clarity on what's happening behind the scenes—and help you ask the right questions when considering or evaluating an ablation.
