Figure 3. AF recurrence-free survival rates
Kaplan-Meier curves for AF-recurrence-free survival are shown. Figure 3A
shows the analysis of AF recurrence at 1 year after the first ablation.
Figure 3B indicates that clinical outcomes after multiple procedures
depended on the extent of LVAs. Figure 3C shows the results of the
post-reintervention analysis by extracting the reintervention group
only.
Blue line, patients in group A); red line, patients allocated to group
B; green line, patients allocated to group C. In Figures 3B and 3C,
patients in group A demonstrated excellent rhythm outcomes. In contrast,
those with extensive LVAs (group C) had a significantly lower
AF-recurrence-free survival rate.
