Atrial Fibrillation: A Major Healthcare Challenge
AF is one of the most important public health issues and a leading cause of increasing health care expenditure in Western Europe. AF costs the US economy >$6.65 billion per year with 75% of the cost resulting from hospitalisations. With the aging population this number is expected to double by 2023.

Types of AF
AF usually originates from the left atrium (LA) which has a complex structure and shape, including four veins that drain blood from the lungs into the heart.
Paroxysmal AF can be prevented by electrical isolation of the four pulmonary veins.
