This updated meta-analysis assesses the role of adenosine testing in patients undergoing atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. Pooling of contemporary data fails to show the benefit of adenosine-guided strategy to improve AF ablation outcomes. Our meta-analysis questions the role of adenosine testing in AF ablation and highlights the need for high quality data.
