- Brief Summary
Totally, 199 patients undergoing catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation were enrolled. Post procedural arrhythmia (PPA) was detected by holter ECG in 7 patients, while 26 patients were diagnosed as PPA by pulse-wave sensitive wrist-watch (PWSW). Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of the detection of PPA with PWSW were 71.4%, 89.1%, 19.2%, 99.8%, respectively.
