Use of the CHA(2)DS(2)VASc score to reduce utilisation of transoesophageal echocardiography prior to ablation for atrial fibrillation
Transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) is frequently performed prior to atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation to exclude left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus. However, patients undergoing AF ablation are usually anticoagulated, thus making the presence of thrombus unlikely in most cases. This study aim...
