Occurrence of Focal Atrial Tachycardia During the Ablation Procedure Is Associated With Arrhythmia Recurrence After Termination of Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
Catheter ablation can terminate persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). However, atrial tachycardia (AT) often arises after termination of AF.
Optimal endpoint for catheter ablation of longstanding persistent atrial fibrillation: A randomized clinical trial
TLDR
The value of pursuing AF termination or no with the same strategy during ablation on the long‐term outcomes in patients with LPeAF was explored.
Treatment of Recurrent Nonparoxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Using Focal Impulse and Rotor Mapping (FIRM)‐Guided Rotor Ablation: Early Recurrence and Long‐Term Outcomes
A patient‐tailored ablation approach focused on the elimination of both pulmonary vein triggers as well as substrate drivers may result in favorable outcomes in recurrent persistent AF patients.
Conversion of atrial fibrillation to sinus rhythm during cryoballoon ablation: A favorable and not unusual phenomenon during second‐generation cryoballoon pulmonary vein isolation
The prevalence and the clinical impact of conversion of atrial fibrillation (AF) to sinus rhythm (SR) during cryoballoon ablation (CB‐A) are unknown.
Successful Repeat Catheter Ablation of Recurrent Longstanding Persistent Atrial Fibrillation With Rotor Elimination as the Procedural Endpoint: A Case Series
TLDR
There remains a lack of consensus regarding the ideal ablation strategy for atrial fibrillation, particularly in patients with persistent or longstanding persistent AF, and a series of studies question whether procedural AF termination is a desirable endpoint for ablation after many forms of AF ablation.
Procedural arrhythmia termination during beating-heart, stand-alone surgical ablation and long-term outcome in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation
TLDR
There is a trend towards better long-term results if arrhythmia was terminated during surgical epicardial ablation on beating heart, suggests that AF is a biatrial disease in patients with persistent AF.
Are the site and mode of termination matters of prime importance in catheter ablation of persistent atrial fibrillation?

  • 2014
TLDR
There is increasing evidence that AF termination during catheter ablation is associated with a better clinical outcome, especially in patients with longstanding persistent AF, however, it is currently unclear how to identify those who will not terminate with ablation and those who do not have any potential to restore SR.
Persistent atrial fibrillation ablation: conventional versus driver-guided strategy.
TLDR
The conventional stepwise ablation approach for persistent AF versus driver-guided ablation with the use of newer mapping technologies is focused on.
Non-Inducibility Or Termination As Endpoints Of Atrial Fibrillation Ablation: What Is The Role?
TLDR
It is likely that non-inducibility or termination of AF during AF ablation may be markers of less structural remodeling rather than true endpoints for ablation.
Mapping and investigation of atrial electrogram fractionation in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation
TLDR
Contributions towards the minimization of discordances in automated classification of CFAEs, the characterization of AEGs before and after PVI, and the investigation of the temporal behaviour of consecutive Aegs and the consistency of C FAEs using different AEG segment lengths are encloses.
