Stroke risk associated with balloon based catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation: Rationale and design of the MACPAF Study
BACKGROUND: Catheter ablation of the pulmonary veins has become accepted as a standard therapeutic approach for symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). However, there is some evidence for an ablation associated (silent) stroke risk, lowering the hope to limit the stroke risk by restoration...
