NO
To prospectively investigate the association between body composition assessed by InBody, left atrial electrical substrate including low-voltage areas, and clinical outcomes after first-time catheter ablation in patients with atrial fibrillation.
Others
To clarify the relationship among body composition, left atrial electrical substrate, and post-ablation clinical course in patients undergoing catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation.
Exploratory
Pragmatic
Not applicable
Association between the proportion or extent of left atrial low-voltage areas on the left atrial voltage map obtained during first-time catheter ablation and pre-procedural body composition parameters assessed by InBody.
1. Association of atrial fibrillation or atrial tachyarrhythmia recurrence at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after ablation with pre-procedural body composition parameters, left atrial low-voltage areas, and frailty assessment.
2. Modified EHRA score, use of antiarrhythmic drugs, electrical cardioversion, and repeat ablation at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after ablation.
3. Association of procedural parameters, including procedure time, energy modality, ablation energy, additional ablation, first-pass isolation, and immediate reconnection, with body composition parameters and left atrial low-voltage areas.
4. Changes in echocardiographic parameters, especially left atrial strain, before ablation, on the day after ablation, and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after ablation, and their association with body composition parameters, left atrial low-voltage areas, and clinical outcomes.

This is a single-center, prospective observational registry study involving patients undergoing first-time catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation. No study-specific therapeutic intervention or treatment allocation will be performed. Data will be collected from catheter ablation and related examinations performed as part of routine clinical practice. Pre-procedural data will include body composition assessed by InBody, frailty assessment, blood tests, echocardiography, CT findings, left atrial voltage mapping during the procedure, and ablation-related procedural parameters. Follow-up data will be collected at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after ablation, including arrhythmia recurrence, modified EHRA score, use of antiarrhythmic drugs, electrical cardioversion, and repeat ablation.
