Patients who underwent catheter ablation, compared to those not receiving ablation, were significantly older and were more likely to be male (P> .001 for both differences). Rates of AF readmission at 1 year were 5.2% in the ablation group and 9.0% for those without ablation. The corresponding...

RV pacing was linked with left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony in almost 50% of patients with PM implantation and atrioventricular (AV) node ablation for AFib. In patients with normal systolic function needing a PM, apical RV pacing resulted in LV ejection fraction (LVEF) reduction. These ...
The research team identified microRNAs, small, stable, noncoding RNA molecules that negatively control gene expression at a stage called the post-transcriptional level. These markers could potentially indicate which atrial fibrillation patients are most likely to benefit from ablation - a procedure that...
HRS: Afib Ablation May Scale Back Stroke RiskSAN FRANCISCO -- With no clear randomized evidence, registry data show that successful ablation for atrial fibrillation eases symptoms and is suggestive of reduced stroke and mortality risks, according to a pooled study.Crystal Phend...
"Everybody should continue to take an oral anticoagulant in the first few months after an ablation," lead investigator Dr Peter Noseworthy (Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN) toldheartwirefrom Medscape. "If the patient is at a lower risk for stroke, the type of patient that might not need to be...
The temporary interruption resulted in very few strokes or thrombotic events and a low rate of bleeding in both rivaroxaban- and warfarin-treated patients.
He noted that the trial was powered only for a wide noninferiority margin of the primary outcome but that it is the first controlled AF ablation trial of novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) done exclusively in patients at high stroke risk. ...
