Catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) has emerged as an important rhythm-control
strategy and is by far the most common cardiac ablation procedure performed worldwide …

Stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is one pillar of the management of
this common arrhythmia. Substantial advances in the epidemiology and associated …

Abstract The Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) atrial fibrillation (AF) guidelines
program was developed to aid clinicians in the management of these complex patients, as …

Asymptomatic arrhythmias are frequently encountered in clinical practice. Although studies
specifically dedicated to these asymptomatic arrhythmias are lacking, many arrhythmias still …

Catheter ablation (CA) of atrial fibrillation (AF) is currently one of the most commonly
performed electrophysiology procedures. Ablation of paroxysmal AF is based on the …

Recent innovations have the potential to improve rhythm control therapy in patients with
atrial fibrillation (AF). Controlled trials provide new evidence on the effectiveness and safety …

There are major challenges ahead for clinicians treating patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).
The population with AF is expected to expand considerably and yet, apart from …

Background The impact of atrial fibrillation catheter ablation (AFCA) on hard clinical
endpoints remains controversial. Objective Our aim was to conduct a random‐effect model …

Aims Long-term freedom from atrial fibrillation (AF) after catheter ablation (CA) and
consequently the potential for stroke reduction remain unpredictable. Percutaneous left atrial …

Background Electrical isolation of the left atrial appendage (LAA) is associated with a lower
rate of atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence in patients undergoing radiofrequency catheter …
