By Luosha Wang, Peng Chang, Xin Ma and 4 others.
Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia, with hypertension representing a significant risk factor. It is necessary to predict the recurrence of AF through models in clinical practice for patients with hypertension and AF.
Methods
A retrospective analysis was conducted on 380 patients who underwent their first ablation procedure.
