Figure 3 Sustained AF Inducibility

Sustained atrial fibrillation (AF) was reduced from 26.0% to 4.2% with the extra stimulus technique by 1 premature atrial complex (PAC) in the oral treatment (PO) group (p = 0.019); AF decreased from 38.0% to 12.5% after 2 PACs in the PO group (p = 0.017); AF decreased from 48.9% to 10.5% after 3 PACs in the PO group (p = 0.003); and AF decreased from 38.8% to 22.5% by burst pacing technique in the PO group (p = 0.038).
