Quality of life after catheter and minimally invasive surgical ablation of paroxysmal and early persistent atrial fibrillation: results from the SCALAF trial
2019
Aims
In the SCALAF trial, catheter-based pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) was as effective in long-term prevention of atrial fibrillation (AF) as minimally invasive thoracoscopic PVI and left atrial appendage ligation (MIPI). Catheter ablation (CA) resulted in significantly less major complications as compare to MIPI. We report quality of life (QOL) outcome in these patients.
