ECG Predictors for New-Onset Atrial Fibrillation Within a Year After Radiofrequency Ablation of Counterclockwise-Rotating Atrial Flutter

Background: New-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) after ablation of typical atrial flutter (AFL) is not rare. This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of electrocardiographic parameters on new-onset AF post-typical AFL ablation.Methods: A total of 158 consecutive patients (79.1% males, mean...

AFNII was significantly lower (0.118 ± 0.034 mV vs. 0.168 ± 0.051 mV, p < 0.0001), DPII (144.21 ± 23.77 ms vs. 111.46 ± 14.19 ms, p < 0.0001), and DPNV1 was significantly longer (81.07 ± 16.87 ms vs. 59.86 ± 14.42 ms, p < 0.0001) in patients with new-onset AF.
