“…Thus, the results of voltage mapping challenge the general practice of selecting an AF ablation strategy primarily based on a rather soft clinical parameter, such as AF type. Similar to previous studies, clinical parameters, such as advanced age, 12,16 female sex, 17 reduced LA appendage flow velocity, 18 and persistent AF type, 6 were independently associated with atrial substrate. Risk stratification for the presence of LVAs using these simple clinical parameters, such as a score, may support procedure preparation (eg, guiding the decision for or against single-shot devices such as the cryo or laser balloon, which concentrate on PVI and leave the rest of the LA untreated).…”

“…167,455 Numerous studies have evaluated ablation outcomes in ageing patients (variously defined as .65 through to .80). 444,445,[456][457][458][459][460][461][462] Observational studies have consistently reported high multiple procedure success rates at 12 months of up to 80% in older patients. Conflicting data exist regarding outcomes in comparative studies with one study demonstrating a reduced success rate in patients over 65 years while another study showed similar efficacy in patients over the age of 80 years to the younger cohort.…”
