Abstract

BACKGROUND: Some patients fail to respond to persistent atrial fibrillation (PeAF) catheter ablation in spite of multiple procedures and ablation strategies, including low voltage area (LVA)-guided, linear, and complex fractionated atrial electrogram (CFAE)-guided ablation procedures. We hypothesized that LVA extent could predict non-responseto Pe AF catheter ablation in spite of multiple procedures. METHODS: This study included 510 patients undergoing initial ablation procedures for PeAF. LVAs were defined as regions with bipolar peak-to-peak voltages of 20 cm2 was an independent factor associated with AF recurrence after the final procedure(Hazard ratio, 7.94; 95% confidence interval, 2.91 to 21.67, P
