Daily home ECG monitoring for assessing the blanking period after catheter ablation in persistent atrial fibrillation
Early recurrence after atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation is well known, and recent guidelines and statements have suggested that shortening the postablation blanking period (BP) from 12 to 8 weeks may be appropriate, as AF recurrence in the late stage of BP is strongly associated with late recurrence (LR).1
