ORs and 95% Confidence intervals were obtained from ordinal logistic regression models

Model 1: Adjusted for sociodemographic variables: age, sex, race, marital status, highest level of education

Model 2: Adjusted for variables in model 1, clinical variables (symptoms of AF, type of AF, ablation type, and multimorbidity) and health behaviors (alcohol use and smoking status)

Model 3: Adjusted for variables in model 2 and psychosocial/geriatric measures (low social support, independent functioning, cognitive impairment, hearing impairment, and visual impairment)
