Catheter ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation with left ventricular systolic dysfunction: Who is the best candidate?

Background Tachycardia‐induced cardiomyopathy is poorly recognized pre‐ablation. It remains unclear of better patient selection and timing for catheter ablation in persistent atrial fibrillation (PerAF) with heart failure (HF). Methods Consecutive patients with PerAF and left ventricular ejection fr...
