TL;DR: Catheter ablation using real-time CF technology is safe for the treatment of SVT and AF and high CFs may occur during catheter manipulation and not just during ablation, suggesting that measuring CF may provide additional useful information to the operator for safeCatheter manipulation.

A High-Resolution Triaxial Catheter Tip Force Sensor With Miniature Flexure and Suspended Optical Fibers
TL;DR: A miniature, high-resolution fiber Bragg grating (FBG)-based triaxial force sensor to detect the catheter tip–tissue interaction forces using a delicate three-dimensional-printed flexure comprising a cylinder with an inner elliptical cavity for detecting lateral forces and a hybrid elastomer to enhance axial elasticity for improving z-directional force sensitivity.

TL;DR: When analyzed in a large number of electrophysiology laboratories worldwide, catheter ablation of AF shows to be effective in ≈80% of patients after 1.3 procedures per patient, with ≈70% of them not requiring further antiarrhythmic drugs during intermediate follow-up.

Novel Contact Force Sensor Incorporated in Irrigated Radiofrequency Ablation Catheter Predicts Lesion Size and Incidence of Steam Pop and Thrombus
Katsuaki Yokoyama,Hiroshi Nakagawa,Dipen Shah,Hendrik Lambert,Giovanni Leo,Nicolas Aeby,Atsushi Ikeda,Jan Pitha,Tushar Sharma,Ralph Lazzara,Warren M. Jackman +10 more
TL;DR: This novel ablation catheter, which accurately measures CF, confirmed CF is a major determinant of RF lesion size and may optimize the selection of RF power and application time to maximize lesion formation and reduce the risk of steam pop and thrombus.
