Figure 3 Threshold analyses using less conservative model estimates. Threshold analyses were repeated with less conservative estimates for normal sinus rhythm (NSR) restoration with rate control therapy (A), health state utility for atrial fibrillation (B), and annual cost of rate control therapy (C). Analyses shown are for the 65-year-old moderate stroke-risk cohort for a $50,000 per quality-adjusted life-year cost-effectiveness threshold. Diamonds = base-case; squares = less conservative estimate; LACA = left atrial catheter ablation.
