Abstract:
Atrial fibrillation is the most common persistent arrhythmia in the clinic. It affects a wide range of populations with high incidence, morbidity and mortality. Clinical studies have shown that ablation is one of the best means for the treatment of atrial fibrillation. However, after receiving ablation, some patients may experience atrial tachycardia and thus feel even deteriorated feelings. Understanding the predicting factors, electrophysiological mechanisms, and differential diagnosis and treatment strategies for post-ablation atrial tachycardia is essential for reducing the incidence and for the management of post-ablation atrial tachycardia. Therefore, we summarize the research progress of the above-mentioned aspects, and correspondingly proposes further research directions.
