OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of improved glycemic control on atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence rates after ablation.BACKGROUND Diabetes is associated with increased rates of AF. The impact of improved pre-ablation glycemic control remains unknown.METHODS The 12-month pre-ablation trends in glycemic control were studied in 298 patients with diabetes undergoing AF ablation. Recurrence data were obtained during a mean follow-up period of 25.92 +/- 20.26 months post-ablation.RESULTS Higher glycated hemoglobin (HbA(1c)) at the time of ablation was associated with higher post-ablation recurrence rates. More than two-thirds (68.75%) of patients with HbA(1c) >9% at the time of ablation developed recurrent AF, compared with 32.4% of those with HbA(1c)
