In patients with atrial fibrillation, catheter ablation was associated with a reduced risk of developing psychiatric disorders, including anxiety, depression, insomnia, suicidal ideation or attempt, and dementia, in comparison to those who did not undergo ablation. Clinicians should consider incorporating psychiatric risk factors into their comprehensive patient assessment when evaluating candidates for catheter ablation
