Zusammenfassung: | Background
A left atrial posterior wall isolation (LAPWI) is one of the atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation strategies.
Hypothesis
We hypothesized that an additional empirical LAPWI would increase the freedom from recurrent atrial arrhythmias as compared to standard AF ablation in persistent AF patients.
Methods
The CORNERSTONE AF study is a prospective, randomized, multicenter study investigating patients with AF persisting for >7 days and |
