Left atrial effective conducting size predicts atrial fibrillation vulnerability in persistent but not paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

Background: The multiple wavelets and functional re‐entry hypotheses are mechanistic theories to explain atrial fibrillation (AF). If valid, a chamber's ability to support AF should depend upon the left atrial size, conduction velocity (CV), and refractoriness. Measurement of these parameters could...
