Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation results in significant QTc prolongation in the postoperative period

BACKGROUND: The corrected QT interval (QTc) is a measure of ventricular repolarization time, and a prolonged QTc increases risk for malignant ventricular arrhythmias. Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) may increase QTc but its effects have not been well studied. OBJECTIVE: Determine the incidence, risk...
