Impact of Obstructive Sleep Apnea on Arrhythmia and Quality‐of‐Life Outcomes After Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation
Baseline OSA was associated with an increased AF recurrence risk in patients with PAF, but not in those with PersAF. Catheter ablation resulted in improvement of quality-of-life metrics irrespective of baseline OSA among AF subtypes.
