In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

A study comparing atrioventricular junction ablation (AVJA) versus continued optimum medical rate control in patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and atrial fibrillation (AF) with suboptimal heart rate control on optimum medication.
