Driver Domains in Persistent Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]
Circulation, 2014 Background— Specific noninvasive signal processing was applied to identify drivers in distinct categories of persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods and Results— In 103 consecutive patients with persistent AF, accurate biatrial geometry relative to an array of ...

Contemporary management of persistent atrial fibrillation
Heart, 2021### Learning objectives Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a multisystemic disorder that is associated with an excess risk of stroke, heart failure and mortality.1 It remains the most common sustained arrhythmia and its significance should not be underestimated. Research focused on unveiling the mechanisms of AF began over a century ago.

Persistent Atrial Fibrillation vs Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation: Differences in Management
Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy, 2017Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common human arrhythmia. AF is a progressive disease, initially being nonsustained and induced by trigger activity, and progressing towards persistent AF through alteration of the atrial myocardial substrate.

Contemporary approaches to persistent atrial fibrillation
Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy, 2012Atrial fibrillation (AF) is currently the most commonly treated cardiac arrhythmia. It is generally a progressive disease, often more difficult to control as electromechanical remodeling alters the underlying substrate. Patients typically evolve from infrequent, self-terminating episodes, to more frequent and sustained events.

Ablation of persistent atrial fibrillation and beyond
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2018Percutaneous catheter ablation is an effective treatment for atrial fibrillation. However, catheter ablation for the treatment of persistent atrial fibrillation or long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation is associated with unsatisfying success rates.

Catheter Ablation of Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
Future Cardiology, 2014Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) is performed increasingly worldwide and with the development of new technologies the procedures have become safer and more effective after a single attempt, particularly with paroxysmal AF. However, success rates for persistent AF ablation remain far lower than paroxysmal AF and there is large variation in ...

Persistent atrial fibrillation; It is time to regroup
Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2019AbstractPulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is the only proven ablation strategy for paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). However, when AF recurs despite durable PVI in a subgroup of patients with persistent AF, there is no scientifically proven ablation strategy to pursue.

Mechanisms of persistent atrial fibrillation
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2014Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained arrhythmia, but its mechanisms are poorly understood. In particular, little is known about the factors that contribute to the establishment of persistent or permanent atrial fibrillation. This review addresses possible common signaling pathways that might promote both structural and electrical remodeling
