variables related to the presence of atrial thrombus

Atrial Thrombus Exclusion (ATE) Score48 hours before ablation

The following thromboembolic risk factors mark 1 point if present in patient:

* hypertension = 1 point

* cardiac insufficiency = 1 point

* history of stoke = 1 point

* d-dimer level \>270ng/mL = 1 point The sum corresponds to the ATE score

CHADS2 Score48 hours before ablation

CHADS2 score (congestive heart failure=1, hypertension=1, diabetes mellitus=1, history of stroke or transient ischemic attack=1, and age under 75=1)
