Positioning of the ablation catheter in total endoscopic ablation [PDF]

open access: yesInteractive CardioVascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2013
Minimally invasive ablation of atrial fibrillation is an option in patients not suitable for or refractory to catheter ablation. Total endoscopic ablation can be performed via a monolateral approach, whereby a left atrial box lesion is created. If the ablation is introduced from the right side, the positioning of the ablation catheter on the partly ...

Combination of Ablation and Immunotherapy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Where We Are and Where to Go

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide and is increasing in incidence. Local ablative therapy plays a leading role in HCC treatment.

Noninvasive Assessment of Atrial Fibrillation Complexity in Relation to Ablation Characteristics and Outcome

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Background: The use of surface recordings to assess atrial fibrillation (AF) complexity is still limited in clinical practice. We propose a noninvasive tool to quantify AF complexity from body surface potential maps (BSPMs) that could be used to choose ...

Single ring isolation of pulmonary veins combined with electrical isolation of the superior vena cava in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
BackgroundSingle-ring isolation (SRI) of the pulmonary veins and the left atrial post wall (LAPW) is an accepted strategy in atrial fibrillation ablation.

Atrial fibrillation ablation with a spring sensor-irrigated contact force-sensing catheter compared with other ablation catheters: systematic literature review and meta-analysis

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2019
ObjectivesThe objective of our review was to systematically assess available evidence on the effectiveness, safety and efficiency of a spring sensor-irrigated contact force (CF) catheter (THERMOCOOL SMARTTOUCH Catheter (ST)) for percutaneous ablation of ...

R-wave synchronised atrial pacing in pediatric patients with postoperative junctional ectopic tachycardia: the atrioventricular interval investigated by computational analysis and clinical evaluation

open access: yesBioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2017
Background R-wave synchronised atrial pacing is an effective temporary pacing therapy in infants with postoperative junctional ectopic tachycardia. In the technique currently used, adverse short or long intervals between atrial pacing and ventricular ...

Accretion–ablation mechanics

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2023
In this paper, we formulate a geometric nonlinear theory of the mechanics of accreting–ablating bodies. This is a generalization of the theory of accretion mechanics of Sozio & Yavari (Sozio & Yavari 2019 J. Nonlinear Sci. 29 , 1813–1863 (doi:10.1007/s00332-019-09531-w)).

Non-thermal Electroporation Ablation of Epileptogenic Zones Stops Seizures in Mice While Providing Reduced Vascular Damage and Accelerated Tissue Recovery

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021
In epilepsy, the most frequent surgical procedure is the resection of brain tissue in the temporal lobe, with seizure-free outcomes in approximately two-thirds of cases.
