The Indications for Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation

Український журнал серцево-судинної хірургії, 2022
Since the introduction of catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF), it developed from a specialized experimental procedure into a common treatment option to prevent recurrent AF. In recent years substantial improvement has been made in the equipment

Efficacy and Safety of Catheter Ablation Combined with Left Atrial Appendage Closure in the Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Anatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2022
Background: Catheter ablation combined with left atrial appendage closure is effective in treating atrial fibrillation. However, the effectiveness of this combined treatment compared with catheter ablation alone is still controversial.

Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Parasystole [PDF]

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2011
Ventricular parasystole (VP) has been known to be usually associated with patients showing no structural heart disease. We previously reported its unique characteristics by using simple plotting techniques. However, as far as we know, VP cases treated by catheter ablation are very few.

Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2007
Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice and can result in significant morbidity and mortality. Catheter ablation has become a feasible therapeutic option for the management of this complex and challenging arrhythmia.

Catheter Ablation for Brugada Syndrome [PDF]

Korean Circulation Journal, 2020
Brugada syndrome (BrS) is an arrhythmogenic disease associated with an increased risk of ventricular fibrillation (VF) and sudden cardiac death (SCD). To date, the standard therapy for the prevention of SCD in BrS is the use of an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) especially in patients who have experienced a prior cardiac arrest or syncopal

Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia [PDF]

Circulation, 2010
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) most commonly develops in patients with structural heart disease. Myocardial infarction results in collagen replacement interspersed with surviving myocardium, which alters impulse propagation, facilitating re-entry.1 Aside from the postinfarction substrate, scar-mediated VT occurs in patients with nonischemic ...
