Multiple risk factors for arrhythmia recurrence after Ventricular Tachycardia (VT) ablation have been identified. However, the cumulative impact of these risk factors has not been evaluated, making it challenging to predict these risks in patients with multiple coexisting conditions.

We present the long-term outcome of catheter ablation (CA) and electrophysiological characteristics in HIV+ AF patients. A total of 31 HIV patients and 31 controls were generated by propensity matching, based on calculated risk factor scores, using a logistic model. vs. 54%, p  < .001], vs. 45.2%, p  < .001]

Additional relevant studies, published through November 2022, during the guideline writing process, were also considered by the writing committee and added to the evidence tables, where appropriate.StructureAtrial fibrillation is the most sustained common arrhythmia, and its incidence and prevalence are increasing in the United States and globally.

Atrial fibrillation, or AFib, is the most common type of heart rhythm disorder (arrhythmia), affecting over 6 million Americans, and the number is expected to double by 2030. Catheter ablation is a minimally invasive procedure that disables portions of heart tissue that cause irregular heart rhythms. “In

Cox proportional hazard analysis showed that iCS was significantly associated with the primary outcome in the unadjusted model; however, the association disappeared after adjustment for log-transformed B-type natriuretic peptide level, LVEF, a history of ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation, and ablation for ventricular tachycardia after diagnosis.
