Abstract

This study evaluates the long-term clinical outcome of 56 consecutive patients affected by atrial fibrillation and drug-related typical atrial flutter who underwent cavo-tricuspid isthmus radiofrequency ablation. Symptomatic arrhythmic events recurred after ablation in 64% of the patients during follow-up of 19 +/- 9 months. Even in those who had recurrences, there was a substantial reduction in the incidence of episodes, quality of life was improved, and hospitalizations decreased.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
