Do I need AF ablation if I have a diagnosis of AF but don’t have symptoms?

Ablation is mainly recommended to improve symptoms such as palpitations, breathlessness, or fatigue. If you don’t have symptoms, your cardiologist will usually focus on managing your stroke risk and monitoring your heart rhythm. In some cases, ablation may still be considered if AF is causing changes to your heart function, or is becoming more frequent. Your specialist will guide you on whether ablation offers any benefit in your situation.
