<p>Background:The purpose of this study was to elucidate the effect of the temporal relationship between atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) on clinical outcomes after catheter ablation.</p><p>Methods and Results:We included 129 consecutive patients with AF and HF who underwent catheter ablation in hospital from December 2014 to September 2017. The patients were divided into 2 groups based on the temporal relationship between AF and HF. Group 1 consisted of 42 patients with AF following HF while Group 2 consisted of 87 patients with AF preceding HF or those who developed both of them simultaneously at the timing of first visit to a doctor. The primary endpoint was a composite of death and hospitalization due to HF during a 2-year follow-up. AF recurrence was more common in Group 1 (45% vs. 23%; hazard ratio [HR], 2.49; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.25–4.94; P=0.009). Death and HF hospitalization were more frequent in Group 1 (19 [45%], 6 [7%] patients, respectively, P<0.0001). After adjustment for several covariates, patients in Group 1 were independently associated with poorer outcomes after AF ablation (HR, 8.66; 95% CI, 2.942–5.5; P<0.0001).</p><p>Conclusions:Adverse clinical outcomes of death, HF hospitalization and AF recurrence were more frequent in patients with AF following HF than in those with AF preceding HF.</p>
