Abstract
With the standard procedure we can achieve acceptable results (success rate 60-80% with repeated procedures) with low complication rate even in a “lower volume” center. In selected patients (with paroxysmal AF preferring interventional treatment) can be CA recommended as first-line therapy for rhythm control. CA improves QoL in our patients with AF. As there is no gold standard to measure QoL in AF patients, EQ-5D seems to be a simple, quick and useful tool.
