Is there evidence to support empiric atrial flutter ablation for patients undergoing PVI for atrial fibrillation in the absence of clinical evidence of atrial flutter?
Is typical flutter seen as a possible trigger for atrial fibrillation?
Answer from: at Community Practice
Presumably, triggers for typical atrial flutter, emerge from the left atrium. No randomized trial has shown the combined ablation is more sensible than performing one sided atrial ablation without evidence of typical right atrial flutter.
