Key result
Review highlights the lack of a validated scale to assess very late AF recurrence post-ablation.
Why the study?
There is currently no clear exhaustive validated scale to assess the occurrence of very late arrhythmia recurrence after catheter-based interventional treatment for AF.
What are the predictors and prognostic scales for assessing the risk of recurrence of atrial fibrillation after catheter treatment?
What are the predictors and prognostic scales for assessing the risk of recurrence of atrial fibrillation after catheter treatment?
There is currently no exhaustive validated scale to assess very late recurrence of atrial fibrillation after catheter ablation, highlighting an important area for future research.
No validated scale exists for very late AF recurrence post-ablation; leaves open development of standardized prognostic tools.
The review presents current data on atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrences after catheter-based interventional treatment. The most significant predictors described in various foreign and domestic sources are considered, and the most common in clinical practice scales for assessing the development of AF recurrences after intervention at the pulmonary vein orifices are presented. Unfortunately, currently there is no clear exhaustive validated scale to assess the occurrence of very late arrhythmia recurrence, but due to the high social and medical significance of this problem, the development of this scale represents an actual and demanded direction of modern arrhythmology. An analysis of clinical studies was carried out based on articles indexed in the Scopus, Higher Attestation Commission, Russian Science Citation Index, PubMed, and Web of Science databases.

Aripova et al. (2024) conducted a review in Atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrences after catheter-based interventional treatment. Catheter-based interventional treatment was evaluated. A literature review highlights the lack of a clear, exhaustive, validated scale to assess very late atrial fibrillation recurrence after catheter treatment, emphasizing the need for its development.
