Improving ablation outcomes in atrial fibrillation : improving procedural efficacy, safety, and patient selection

2015-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major health problem, affecting 1-2% of the population. AF reduces quality of life (QoL) and increases morbidity and mortality. Catheter ablation (CA) is the most efficacious means of restoring sinus rhythm but is not always successful and is occasionally associated with serious complications. Several questions are currently unanswered. True procedural effectiveness, particularly long...
