Radiofrequency Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation. Clinician Guide.

摘要

This guide summarizes the clinical evidence on the effectiveness and safety of catheter-based radiofrequency ablation (RFA) compared with anti-arrhythmic drugs (AADs) for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). This guide does not address other aspects of AF treatment, including anticoagulation, rate control medications, or treatments other than RFA and AADs used to restore sinus rhythm.
