Atrial Fibrillation Ablation in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Review of Literature

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), which leads to increased cardiovascular complications. Catheter ablation (CA) has emerged as an effective and safe treatment for AF in CKD patients. CA offers tailored treatment strategies and presents...

description Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), which leads to increased cardiovascular complications. Catheter ablation (CA) has emerged as an effective and safe treatment for AF in CKD patients. CA offers tailored treatment strategies and presents a safer alternative with fewer adverse outcomes than anti-arrhythmic agents. Although CKD patients undergoing ablation have similar complication rates to non-CKD patients, they face a higher risk of hospitalization due to heart failure. Furthermore, CA shows promise in improving kidney function, particularly in individuals who maintain sinus rhythm. Future research should address limitations by including advanced CKD patients, conducting longer-term follow-ups, and developing individualized treatment approaches.
