The Utility of Speckle Tracking Echocardiographic Parameters in Predicting Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence After Catheter Ablation in Patients with Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation

Despite the efficacy of catheter ablation (CA) as a treatment for non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF), many patients still experience atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after CA. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of speckle tracking echocardiographic (STE) parameters for AF recurrence post-ablation.
