Preablation, these patients had experienced 19 \u00b1 13 episodes of AF per month. The patients were provided with a patient\u2010activated transtelephonic event recorder for 30 days, a mean of 642 \u00b1 195 days after the ablation procedure, and were asked to record and transmit recordings on a daily basis and whenever they felt palpitations. Seven patients (12%) felt palpitations during the study, although they had not experienced symptoms previously. Each of these 7 patients had an episode of AF documented with the event monitor during symptoms. In these 7 patients, the mean number of episodes per month decreased from 19 \u00b1 14 preablation to 3 \u00b1 1 postablation (P &lt; 0.001). Among the 53 asymptomatic patients, an episode of AF was captured in 1 (2%) patient during the study period.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n
