Included patients (n = 414) had a clinical follow‐up >90 days and LVEF assessment before and after cryoballoon PVI. Patients with modified heart failure therapy after index procedure, namely, revascularization, cardiac resynchronization, or intensified drug therapy were excluded from our study (n = 15).
