Post-operative atrial fibrillation is associated with a pre-existing structural and electrical substrate in human right atrial myocardium

BACKGROUND: Post-operative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a major health economic burden. However, the precise mechanisms in POAF remain unclear. In other forms of AF, sites of high dominant frequency (DF) in sinus rhythm (SR) may harbour ‘AF nests’. We studied AF inducibility in relation to substrat...
