Safety and efficacy of catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation in an ambulatory day surgery center outside the hospital setting
Our large single-center experience represents the first report in Europe, demonstrating that AF catheter ablation in an ADSC is both safe and feasible. These results suggest that, with standardized protocols and the development of "one size fits all" technologies, this approach could see broader adoption.
