Maintenance of sinus rhythm after electrical cardioversion to identify patients with persistent atrial fibrillation who respond favorably to pulmonary vein isolation: the pre-pacific study
In approximately 40% of patients with PsAF, sinus rhythm can be restored by ECV and maintained for at least 1 month prior to catheter ablation. This clinical response is associated with less abnormal substrate as identified by left atrial voltage mapping and a procedural success rate of >80% with PVI alone.
