Adjunctive posterior wall isolation for the treatment of persistent and longstanding persistent atrial fibrillation (CORNERSTONE AF) trial: Design and rationale

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 patien...

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
