Does radiofrequency catheter ablation increase Troponin T levels in patients with atrial fibrillation?
Radiofrequency ablation of atrial fibrillation causes a significant increase in Troponin T levels, which correlates with age, paroxysmal AF type, and ablation duration.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Post-ablation troponin rise warrants no monitoring change; leaves open its prognostic value in AF.

Phong et al. (2019) conducted a cross-sectional in Atrial fibrillation (n=55). Radiofrequency catheter ablation vs. Electrophysiology study without ablation was evaluated on Troponin T level immediately after procedure (ng/L) (p=<0.001).
