Meta-Analysis: Catheter Ablation Improves Outcomes in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Complicated with Heart Failure

Catheter Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation Improves Outcomes in Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction

M-A: In patients with atrial fibrillation, catheter ablation was associated with a 38% reduction in recurrence and a 68% reduction in hospitalizations. The rate of serious complications was 4.2% with ablation vs. 2.8% in the antiarrhythmic group, a difference that was not statistically significant.

Please see our Stare of the Art review in @JACCJournals regarding the role of first line cryoballoon ablation versus AAD therapy.

We explore the effect if first-line ablation on arrhythmia recurrence, QOL, and healthcare utilisation. @omwazni @UBCDoM https://t.co/70IAbxt1af
