Long-term symptom improvement and patient satisfaction after AV-node ablation vs. pulmonary vein isolation for symptomatic atrial fibrillation: results from the German Ablation Registry

Background We aimed to compare patient characteristics and outcome of patients who had either undergone pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) or AV-node ablation (AVN) to control AF-related symptoms. Methods From the German Ablation Registry, we analyzed data of 4444 patients (95%) who had undergone PVI an...

Results AVN patients were on average 10 years older than PVI patients (71 ± 10 vs. 61 ± 10 years, p  < 0.001) with 33% aged > 75 years.

Significantly more PVI patients had paroxysmal AF (63% vs. 18%, p  < 0.001), and more AVN patients had long-standing persistent AF (44% vs. 7%, p  < 0.001). At 1-year follow-up, mortality in the AVN group was much higher (Kaplan–Meier estimates 9.8% vs. 0.5%). 20% of PVI patients had undergone another ablation vs. 3% AVN patients ( p  < 0.001). Symptomatic improvement was equally achieved in about 80%. Re-hospitalization for cardiovascular reasons occurred significantly more often in PVI vs. AVN patients (31% vs. 18%, p  < 0.001).
