Summary

There is evidence of superiority of AV junction ablation strategy over pharmacological therapy only for symptoms of atrial fibrillation, but not for heart failure, hospitalization, morbidity and mortality. Hypothesis of trial is that AV junction ablation is superior to pharmacological therapy as regard hospitalization and mortality

Conditions

  • Permanent Atrial Fibrillation
