Geriatric nutritional risk index as a predictor of arrhythmia recurrence after catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation

The nutritional risk of patients who undergo atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation varies. Its impact on the recurrence after ablation is unclear. We sought to evaluate the relationship between the nutritional risk and arrhythmia recurrence in patients who undergo AF ablation. We enrolled 538 patients (...

Zusammenfassung:The nutritional risk of patients who undergo atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation varies. Its impact on the recurrence after ablation is unclear. We sought to evaluate the relationship between the nutritional risk and arrhythmia recurrence in patients who undergo AF ablation. We enrolled 538 patients (median 67 years, 69.9% male) who underwent their first AF ablation. Their nutritional risk was evaluated using the pre-procedural geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI), and the patients were classified into two groups: No-nutritional risk (GNRI ≧ 98) and Nutritional risk (GNRI
