  • Abstract
    The time to the first recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) and the AF burden have commonly been used as end points for AF therapy. We conducted a retrospective analysis of data from a large pacemaker registry to assess the relation between the time to the first recurrence and the AF burden. Although a statistical association exists, the small correlation coefficients limit the clinical value of the time to first recurrence as an indicator of AF burden.
