AV NODAL ABLATION IMPROVES LEFT VENTRICULAR REMODELING AND SURVIVAL IN PATIENTS WITH ATRIAL FIBRILLATION UNDERGOING CARDIAC RESYNCHRONIZATION THERAPY (CRT) IMPLANTATION

AV nodal (AVN) ablation is often considered as a last line treatment option in patients with poorly controlled AF. However, small studies have suggested its utility in patients undergoing CRT implantation with concomitant history of AF. Its role in improving LVEF and long term survival is not well
