Natural history of AF - progression
De Sisti PACE 2013;37:345, 2 De Vos JACC 2010;55:725-31 | Yearly progression from paroxysmal/persistent to permanent AF: 3.7%-15% | Age, persistent AF, LA size | Heart failure, Age, TIA/Stroke, COPD , HTN, (HATCH) 2 | sleep apnea, obesitas
- AF geinduceerde elektrische en strukturele remodelling
- Onderliggende CV ziekte veroorzaakt substraat remodelling
- Veroudering geassocieerde substraat

Pulmonary vein isolation with catheter ablation
Interventional EP laboratory
Atrial Fibrillation: Catheter ablation of PV focus
TEE and fluoroscopy guided transseptal puncture
3D electroanatomical mapping
| Placement of a circular mapping catheter (LASSO) and irrigated tip ablation catheter in the LA
Circumferentiel Pulmonary vein siolation with RF ablation
Indications for catheter ablation in AF
- Good indications
- Alternative drug therapy: failed / contraindicated / side effects
- Benefit: High and long term decrease in AF recurrence - efficacy
- Risk: as few as possible complications
Efficacy
Meta analysis of ablation efficacy
| Paroxysmal AF | 1 y single procedure success: 69 % | 5 y single procedure success: 62%, multiple procedure: 79% | Persistent AF | 1 y single procedure success: 52 % | 3 y single procedure success: 42%, multiple procedures:77% Ganesan JAMA 2013;2:4549
Efficacy of persistent, long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation ablation Star AF study
Verma New Eng J Med 2015 | Multicenter randomized trial of 589 pts in 12 countries with persistent AF | Single procedure success at 18 months off AAD for PVI alone: 48% | Two procedures + AAD for PVI alone: 72%
Efficacy as compared to antiarrhythmic drugs

Earlier ablation is associated with improved outcome
Bunch TJ et al: Heart Rhythm 2013;10:1257 | 4535 paroxysmal-persistent AF pts w ablation 1m to > 5y after first diagnosis | 1 year AF recurrence, death, HF hospitalization highest in most delayed group
Early ablation in patients without structural heart diseases might slow AF progression
| 899 pts w median follow up 64 months, AF progression: 6.4% | Progression persistent:10%, long-standing persistent:14,6%, paroxysmal: 2,7% | Progression w comorbidities/cardiomyopathies: 29.9% vs “lone” AF: 9.1% Scaglione Heart Rhythm 2104
Very long-term efficacy of catheter ablation
Steinberg JS Heart Rhythm 2104 | 445 pts – free of AF 1 y postablation followed for additional 66 months | At 5 years 16,3% and 10 years 29,8% recurrence | Persistent AF and hypertension are independent risk factors
Decreased Stroke rate following ablation
| AF ablation patients have a significantly lower risk of stroke compared to AF patients who do not undergo ablation independent of baseline stroke risk score and age | However, currently following AF ablation anticoagulation is based on CHADS-VASC score irrespective of the result of the ablation Bunch J Heart Rhythm 2013;10:1272
Efficacy of atrial fibrillation ablation in paroxysmal AF Smart AF Trial using CF sensing catheter
Natale JACC 2014;64:647-56 | Prospective, multicenter, nonrandomized trial of 171 pts with PAF at 21 sites | Single-procedure 12 m success off AAD therapy: 72%, with CF in operator targeted range: 81%

Practical aspects | Personalized informed consent over efficacy and complications of the ablation procedure
Conclusions | Paroxysmal, Persistent, and Permanent AF classification should be used | Progression rate from paroxysmal to permanent AF is yearly 5%
| Age, persistent AF, HTN, left atrial dilatation and structural heart and pulmonary disease are predictors
| Early interventions might slow progression
| Delay in AF ablation is associated with worse outcome
Conclusions
| Catheter ablation is recommended (class I) in symptomatic paroxysmal AF following failure of one AAD (before amiodarone) | As first line therapy (class IIa) - in case AAD drugs are contraindicated | Personalized informed consent: | Single procedural 12 months success: 70% - 80%, 5y multiple procedures 80% - 85% | Major complications: 4-5% | RF ablation can be considered (class II/a) in symptomatic persistent AF following failure of one AAD | Older pts with dilated LA + structural HD have high recurrence/ progression rates – AAD postablation is frequently needed | Personalized informed consent: | Single procedural 12 months success: 50-60%, 5y Multiple procedures:70-75%
