BACKGROUND: Contact-force sensing catheter is widely used for catheter ablation, however, it did not take account of radiofrequency power. Ablation index (AI) is a novel marker incorporating contact force-time-power, was shown to be reliable in predicting lesion size and depth for radiofrequency delivery. We aimed to assess the latest evidence on ablation index guided procedure versus conventional ablation procedure.METHODS: We performed a comprehensive search on topic that assesses ablation index guided procedure versus conventional procedures from inception up until February 2019 through PubMed, EuropePMC, EBSCOhost, Cochrane Central Database, and ClinicalTrials.gov.RESULTS: A total of 1727 subjects from five studies were included. 12 months' incidence of AF/AT/AFL was lower in ablation index guided with an OR of 0.35 [0.17, 0.73], p = 0.005; I2 58%. Upon sensitivity analysis by removing a study, heterogeneity decreased to 0% with OR of 0.26 [0.15, 0.46], p
