What is the success rate of radiofrequency ablation and is it expensive?

Patient's question:

My father is 52 years old this year. He recently had a recurrence of atrial fibrillation, and the doctor recommended radiofrequency ablation. Which hospital is good, with a high success rate? The estimated cost is

Doctor's answer:

Guidance: For middle-aged and elderly patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, the essential treatment method is radiofrequency ablation, which is a minimally invasive procedure in internal medicine. Due to the recurrence of atrial fibrillation, it may lead to acute thrombosis. Therefore, it is recommended that patients with recurrent atrial fibrillation undergo radiofrequency ablation treatment, as medication cannot effectively address the issue of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. It is advised to choose a larger provincial or municipal cardiac center for the surgery, as the success rate is relatively higher.
