Is routine cervical dilatation necessary during elective caesarean section?
Intraoperative digital cervical dilatation during elective caesarean section did not reduce blood loss and postoperative infectious morbidity. The routine digital cervical dilatation during elective caesarean section is not recommended.
The AF burden measured during the blanking period can predict the response to catheter ablation at 12 months. AF% ≥4.5% at 2 months assessed by continuous monitoring is a powerful predictor of subsequent AF recurrences after initial ablation, thus providing relevant clinical information to select patients for early reintervention.
