What are the incidence, characteristics, and risk factors for acute pericarditis after atrial fibrillation ablation?
What are the incidence, characteristics, and risk factors for acute pericarditis after atrial fibrillation ablation?
Acute pericarditis is a common complication following AF ablation, particularly in younger patients, warranting systematic assessment.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
May prompt closer surveillance in younger patients after AF ablation; hypothesis-generating for prevention strategies.
Suspected acute pericarditis is common after AF ablation and is associated with a younger age. Systematic assessments for acute pericarditis after AF ablation should be considered.
