Atrial fibrillation ablation in heart failure patients: improved systolic function after cryoballoon pulmonary vein isolation

Abstract Aims Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) are the most common cardiac diseases and often coexist leading to increased mortality and morbidity compared with AF patients without HF. As shown previously, AF ablation using radio frequency (RF) in HF patients leads to a reduction of A...
