In patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF), the P-wave signal-averaged electrocardiogram often demonstrates a low-amplitude potential at the terminal part of filtered P-wave (atrial late potential: ALP), which would originate from delayed pulmonary vein (PV) potentials. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of PV isolation on P-wave morphology, and explore the association between ALP and AF recurrence after ablation.
