European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA)/Heart Rhythm Society (HRS)/ Asia Pacific Heart Rhythm Society (APHRS)/Latin American Heart Rhythm Society (LAHRS) expert consensus statement on catheter and surgical ablation of atrial fibrillation

Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation is an important treatment option for maintaining a normal heart rhythm and reducing arrhythmia-related symptoms. This consensus statement provides healthcare providers with clinical practice standards and advice on which patients should receive ablation, how to perform the procedure, and how to manage patients before, during, and afterwards.
