The following question regards catheter ablation of paroxysmal afib.

Let's consider the following times, for the same person:
-- A = the time of the ablation procedure
-- B = the time when the final success / unsuccess of that procedure
is assessed by medical centers and is recorded in their statistics.

Question: how long is the A-B interval, generally?

Thanks

Should be 3-6 months but this will vary institutionally.
