Abstract
Pre-LVAD VAs and AF predict the occurrence of VAs after LVAD implantation. According to the latest data on the negative impact of post-LVAD VAs on all-cause mortality, further studies should clarify the reasonability of maintaining sinus rhythm in patients with AF and/or prophylactic catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardias before LVAD implantation.
