Impact of Long‐Term CPAP Adherence on Recurrence After Atrial Fibrillation Ablation in Patients With Severe Sleep Apnea
In patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea at baseline, AF recurrence rates within 1-year postablation were similar regardless of CPAP adherence. However, long-term CPAP therapy was associated with a reduced AF recurrence rate in the subsequent period.
