Efficacy of catheter ablation of focal sources in persistent atrial fibrillation

Introduction Recent studies suggest that atrial fibrillation (AF) is maintained by electrical activity arising from focal sources. We sought to test whether catheter ablation that targets focal sources can improve on current ablation protocols for persistent AF. Methods and results In patients with...
