Long-term outcomes of pace-and-ablate strategy in patients with atrial fibrillation
Mortality and HFH in patients with AF managed through a pace-and-ablate strategy are high. Reassuringly, LVEF deterioration requiring upgrade to CRT is uncommon in patients undergoing RVP with normal baseline LVEF before AVNA. CRT improves LVEF in patients with reduced LVEF before AVNA.
