Abstract
The review presents current data on atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrences after catheter-based interventional treatment. The most significant predictors described in various foreign and domestic sources are considered, and the most common in clinical practice scales for assessing the development of AF recurrences after intervention at the pulmonary vein orifices are presented. Unfortunately, currently there is no clear exhaustive validated scale to assess the occurrence of very late arrhythmia recurrence, but due to the high social and medical significance of this problem, the development of this scale represents an actual and demanded direction of modern arrhythmology. An analysis of clinical studies was carried out based on articles indexed in the Scopus, Higher Attestation Commission, Russian Science Citation Index, PubMed, and Web of Science databases.
