18 mar 2013 · Until recently, few series have presented the long‐term outcomes of AF ablation at ≥3 years of follow‐up. In the current study, we systematically reviewed the medical literature to evaluate the long‐term single‐ and multiple‐procedure efficacy of AF ablation.
8 kwi 2024 · What are the long-term side effects of open-heart surgery? Open-heart surgery can be life saving but may lead to long-term side effects such as chronic pain, arrhythmias, or memory...
8 lut 2023 · Our study examines the long-term AF ablation outcomes in a large single-center cohort of patients undergoing AF ablation over 18 years. We examined 3 major eras of ablation on the basis of type of catheter used at initial ablation: an early, intermediate, and contemporary ablation era.
16 gru 2021 · Results. In the study were 1521 patients, 69% men, mean age 62 years. At baseline, 87% of the patients and at the 5‐year follow‐up 80% of those eligible filled out the ASTA questionnaire.
Published data in the literature suggest that success rates following ablation of AF are relatively favorable (50-70%)[3,4,5] but most studies have reported limited follow-up of 1 or 2 years after the first ablation and the long-term outcomes have not been fully elucidated.
26 lip 2016 · Operators may consider using three-dimensional mapping techniques that combine integration of CT left atrial images, as our results suggest that this has a significant impact on long-term success.
Background: Little is known about the very long term durability of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate very long term AF ablation outcomes. Methods: We followed 5200 patients undergoing 7145 ablation procedures.
