Efficacy and Safety of Catheter Ablation Combined with Left Atrial Appendage Closure in the Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Anatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2022
Background: Catheter ablation combined with left atrial appendage closure is effective in treating atrial fibrillation. However, the effectiveness of this combined treatment compared with catheter ablation alone is still controversial.

Assessment of Catheter Ablation or Antiarrhythmic Drugs for First-line Therapy of Atrial Fibrillation: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials.

JAMA cardiology, 2021
Importance Early rhythm control of atrial fibrillation (AF) with either antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) or catheter ablation has been reported to improve cardiovascular outcomes compared with usual care; however, the optimal therapeutic modality to achieve ...

Impact of undiagnosed obstructive sleep apnea on atrial fibrillation recurrence following catheter ablation (OSA-AF study)

International Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2022
Background: Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) may hamper the outcome of catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, SDB is underdiagnosed in clinical practice and the relevancy of undiagnosed SDB on the outcome of catheter ablation is unclear.

Association Between Age and Outcomes of Catheter Ablation Versus Medical Therapy for Atrial Fibrillation: Results From the CABANA Trial

Circulation, 2021
Background: Observational data suggest that catheter ablation may be safe and effective to treat younger and older patients with atrial fibrillation. No large, randomized trial has examined this issue.

Catheter ablation of right ventricular outflow tract tachycardia using contact force guidance [PDF]

, 2014
Outflow tract tachycardias (OTT) originating from the right or left ventricular outflow tract are thought to be benign. However, symptoms can be disabling and deterioration of left ventricular function may occur with a high arrhythmia burden.

Detecting and monitoring arrhythmia recurrence following catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation. [PDF]

, 2015
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia prompting clinical presentation, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The incidence and prevalence of this arrhythmia is expected to grow significantly in the coming decades.

2019 HRS/EHRA/APHRS/LAHRS expert consensus statement on catheter ablation of ventricular arrhythmias: Executive summary

Journal of interventional cardiac electrophysiology, 2020
Ventricular arrhythmias are an important cause of morbidity and mortality and come in a variety of forms, from single premature ventricular complexes to sustained ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation. Rapid developments have taken place over the past
