This poses a challenge for assuring that patient education and expectations of recovery after an AF ablation is consistent with the most current guidelines. At the completion of this presentation, attendees will be able to Identify current best practices based on research findings in order to provide optimal care to patients undergoing an atrial fibrillation ablation.
