The Development of the Maze Procedure for the Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation
Open accessAbstract
The Maze procedure was developed for the treatment of atrial fibrillation over a period of several years. Extensive experimental and clinical studies of the underlying electrophysiology of the arrhythmia were performed, and numerous surgical techniques and principles were tried before the Maze procedure was conceived. Few cardiac surgical procedures have undergone more extensive research and experimental trials before being applied clinically. This article gives a brief summary of the work leading up to the eventual Maze-III procedure that is now in clinical use.

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.
