Why the study?
The registry was established to collect details on target arrhythmias, ablation procedures, outcomes, and acute complications in real-world settings.
The J-AB registry collected data on 89,609 catheter ablation procedures in Japan during 2021, providing real-world insights into target arrhythmias, procedures, outcomes, and complications.

Supports prospective ablation data collection in Japan; leaves open impact on outcomes or practice without further analyses.
The Japanese Catheter Ablation (J-AB) registry, started in August 2017, is a voluntary, nationwide, multicenter, prospective, observational registry, performed by the Japanese Heart Rhythm Society (JHRS) in collaboration with the National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center using a Research Electronic Data Capture system. The purpose of this registry is to collect the details of target arrhythmias, the ablation procedures, including the type of target arrhythmias, outcomes, and acute complications in the real-world settings. During the year of 2021, we have collected a total of 89 609 procedures (mean age of 66.1 years and 65.9% male) from 506 participant hospitals. Detailed data are shown in Figures and Tables.
