RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN REDUCTION OF SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE AND ATRIAL FIBRILLATION BURDEN AFTER RENAL DENERVATION AND PULMONARY VEIN ISOLATION

Renal artery denervation (RDN) has provided incremental atrial fibrillation (AF) suppression after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in patients with AF in the setting of drug-resistant hypertension, but the antiarrhythmic mechanism by which RND functions is unknown. All patients from two randomized
