Why the study?
Does catheter ablation improve sinus rhythm maintenance and quality of life in patients with atrial fibrillation?
Does catheter ablation improve sinus rhythm maintenance and quality of life in patients with atrial fibrillation?
Catheter ablation is an effective and safe treatment for atrial fibrillation that significantly improves quality of life, achieving an 80% long-term success rate for paroxysmal AF after multiple procedures.
May support ablation for rhythm control in paroxysmal AF; leaves open comparative efficacy versus drugs in persistent AF.
