Cardiac rehabilitation after catheter ablation of atrial fibrilation
Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia worldwide. Besides antiarrhythmic drugs and electrical cardioversion, atrial
fibrillation can be treated with a newer technique called catheter ablation. Patients suffering a catheter ablation can benefit from an
integrated rehabilitation programme like all other patients suffering a cardiac surgery. Physical training and psycho-educative
consultations are specific after catheter ablation and integrated rehabilitation can improve mental health, physical capacity and
