Background: The optimal timing of catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) in reference to
the time of diagnosis is unknown. We sought to assess the impact of the duration between …

Background In patients with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation that has not
responded to medication, catheter ablation is more effective than antiarrhythmic drug …

Background Age is a relevant risk factor for the development of atrial fibrillation (AF) and is
associated with increased recurrence rates in the setting of rhythm-control. Catheter ablation …

Aims Catheter ablation is considered the treatment of choice for many tachyarrhythmias, but
convincing 'real-world'data on efficacy and safety are lacking. Using Swedish national …

Background Recurrence after atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation is still common. Objective This
study aimed to evaluate the predictive abilities of AF duration and early recurrence (ER) to …

Aims Overweight is associated with increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF), but the impact of
overweight and AF recurrence after ablation is less clear. Despite this, an increasing number …

Background The utility of long-term intermittent heart rhythm monitoring after atrial fibrillation
(AF) ablation remains unclear. Therefore, we compared the efficacy and usability of long …

Background: Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) is an effective therapy for atrial
fibrillation (AF). However, it the problem of AF recurrence remains. This study investigates …

Background Wait times for catheter ablation in patients with symptomatic atrial fibrillation
(AF) may influence clinical outcomes. Objective This study examined the relationship …

Radiofrequency catheter ablation (CA) is an effective treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF) that
traditionally requires fluoroscopic imaging to guide catheter movement and positioning …
