This study aimed to assess quality-of-life (QOL) and healthcare utilization (HCU) benefits experienced by Q-FFICIENCY study participants. Participants underwent pulmonary vein isolation with very high-power short-duration (vHPSD) mode (90 W, ≤4 s) alone or combined with conventional-power temperature-controlled (CPTC) mode (25–50 W).

ABSTRACT Background Catheter ablation improves symptoms and quality of life in atrial fibrillation patients, but its effect on adverse cardiovascular outcomes and mortality remains uncertain. Bayesian analysis of randomized controlled trials offers a deeper understanding of treatment effects beyond conventional p -value thresholds.
