A minimally invasive heart procedure to correct irregular heart rhythms called catheter ablation may reduce the risk of ...

Adults with atrial fibrillation with overweight or obesity were less likely to experience recurrent atrial arrhythmia when ...

Mortality and morbidity are higher among patients with atrial fibrillation and heart failure than among those with heart failure alone. Catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation has been proposed as a ...

Background: Observational studies have suggested that sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are associated with a lower risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after catheter ablation ...

Treating atrial fibrillation with catheter ablation in addition to medical management may offer greater protection against cognitive impairment than medical management alone, new research suggests.

Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation is typically performed with uninterrupted anticoagulation with warfarin or interrupted non–vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant therapy. Uninterrupted ...

PFA was noninferior to cryoablation for first recurrence of atrial tachyarrhythmia in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Tissue-selective energy delivery and short application times offer ...

CHRISTUS Ochsner St. Patrick Hospital is now the first facility in Southwest Louisiana to perform a procedure designed to ...

CLEVELAND — A new Cleveland Clinic study has shown promise for treating atrial fibrillation patients. The results point to ablation as a potentially more effective method treatment than the current ...
