Uncovering the Roots of Atrial Fibrillation: Mechanisms, Triggers, and Targeted Therapy (AHA Joint Session with Japanese Circulation Society)

Atrial fibrillation (AF) remains a major global health burden despite the emergence of novel technologies. While recent advances such as pulsed field ablation (PFA) offer safer and more efficient rhythm control, long-term success depends on a deeper understanding of the mechanisms that initiate and sustain AF. This session explores the biological foundations of AF, including genetic risk factors, the embryological origins of arrhythmogenic triggers, and the role of inflammation in atrial remodeling. By examining these interconnected pathways, it highlights how mechanistic insights can unlock new opportunities for targeted prevention and curative therapies. The session aims to discuss the development of more personalized and durable strategies for managing atrial fibrillation.
