After atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) was confirmed they underwent induction of AF. After SP ablation AF induction was reattempted. Vulnerability to AF was reassessed.<\/jats:italic> <\/jats:p><jats:p> <jats:italic>\n            <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> Twenty\u2010four patients were enrolled; eight were not inducible for AF in the preablative state. Mean CL<\/jats:italic>\n          <jats:italic>of the AVNRT was 340 \u00b1 16 ms. The average RF ablation time was 131 \u00b1 42 seconds. Presence of junctional rhythm was required. Of the 16 with inducible AF two patients had AF induced during routine invasive electrophysiology study. None of these had inducible AF after SP ablation. Fourteen of 16 patients required specific AF induction. Ten of these were noninducible after SP ablation; two were inducible after SP ablation but with a more aggressive pacing protocol (P &lt; 0.03 compared to preablation) and two had no change in AF vulnerability. Seven of the eight noninducible patients remained noninducible for AF post SP ablation. In the 12 patients who were inducible prior but noninducible after ablation the mean atrial effective refractory period (AERP) increased for both BCL at 400 and 600 ms (400\/216 \u00b1 8 ms preablation vs 400\/248 \u00b1 12 ms postablation, P &lt; 0.03; 600\/228 \u00b1 8 ms preablation vs 600\/259 \u00b1 6 ms postablation, P &lt; 0.04). There were no significant changes in AERP of patients who remained inducible or who were noninducible before ablation. The average ablation time for patients who became noninducible after ablation was significantly higher than those who had no change in inducibility or remained inducible but at a more aggressive pacing threshold (157 \u00b1 24 seconds vs 35 \u00b1 5 seconds; P &lt; 0.005).<\/jats:italic> <\/jats:p><jats:p> <jats:italic>\n            <jats:bold>Conclusion:<\/jats:bold> SP ablation acutely decreases vulnerability to pacing\u2010induced AF in patients with AVNRT.
