    Symptoms such as chest tightness, suffocation, amaurosis, syncope with cardiac arrest with mean heart rate \<45bpm or ≥3s on 12-lead ECG or Holter

    12 months after ablation procedure

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • The result of the atropine test

    12 months after ablation procedure

  • Changes in quality of life measured by Medical Outcomes Study 36- Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36)

    3, 6, 12 months after ablation procedure

  • Changes in quality of life measured by EuroQol Five Dimensions Questionnaire Visual Analogue Scale (EQ VAS)

    3, 6, 12 months after ablation procedure

  • Changes in minmum heart rate

    3, 6, 12 months after ablation procedure

  • Changes in mean heart rate

    3, 6, 12 months after ablation procedure

  • +1 more secondary outcomes
