Quantification of atrial tachyarrhythmia burden with an implantable pacemaker before and after pulmonary vein isolation.

Long-term efficacy of pulmonary vein (PV) ostial isolation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is difficult to assess. We evaluated the net duration of atrial tachyarrhythmia episodes (burden), atrial tachyarrhythmia episode frequency, and quality-of-life (QOL) before and after PV isolation in patien...
