Do Ablations generally fix PAC's as well? Getting an ablation next week. I was wondering if an afib ablation will also fix PAC's? I was told by my first EP That it will address PACS but not PVC's. What is the insights and consensus from the forum?

It may or may not. For some people it completely eliminates them, for others it does little, but for most it will at least improve them. I think a lot of people go into ablations not knowing they even have PACs because their PACs always lead immediately to afib, so when they come out of the ablation suddenly they've got PACs that they notice. So it doesn't seem like much of an improvement to them when in fact it actually is.
I agree. Just my case, indeed.]]> Pompon AFIBBERS FORUM Wed, 31 May 2023 18:26:13 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,190841,190845#msg-190845 Re: Do Ablations generally fix PAC's as well? https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,190841,190845#msg-190845
The medical community isn't terribly worried about a small/moderate burden of PACs. When they become highly intrusive, and QOL drops significantly, and if the burden approaches 8-10%, they will probably, not certainly, offer you a touch-up or different approach to get their numbers down to a more tolerable range.]]> gloaming AFIBBERS FORUM Tue, 30 May 2023 18:20:53 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,190841,190842#msg-190842 Re: Do Ablations generally fix PAC's as well? https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,190841,190842#msg-190842 Carey AFIBBERS FORUM Tue, 30 May 2023 03:28:12 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,190841,190841#msg-190841 Do Ablations generally fix PAC's as well? https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,190841,190841#msg-190841
