Electrical isolation of the left atrial appendage in East Asian patients with atrial fibrillation
The left atrial appendage (LAA) is a source of non–pulmonary vein triggers in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Electrical isolation of the LAA (EILAA) improves rhythm outcome with an inherent risk of embolism unless lifelong anticoagulation is continued. However, evidence of the efficacy and safety of EILAA in the East Asian population remains lacking.
