The Vanderbilt Atrial Fibrillation Ablation registry (VAFAR) is a prospective clinical and genetic biorepository that systematically enrolls patients undergoing atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. The registry was started in 2011 and has greater than 1000 AF ablation records with stored blood and DNA samples. The goals of VAFAR are to: 1) identify clinical, genetic, and serological predictors of response to AF ablation in order to improve patient selection, and 2) to provide a resource for translational research investigating the electrophysiologic mechanisms of AF pathogenesis.
