Catheter ablation

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1991
Catheter ablation is gaining increasing interest for the therapy of symptomatic, sustained arrhythmias of various origins. The scope of this review is to give an overview of the biophysical aspects and major characteristics of some of the most widely used energy sources in catheter ablation, e.g., the discharge of conventional defibrillators, modified

Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation

Heart Failure Clinics, 2014
Strategies and technology related to catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) continue to advance since its inception nearly 20 years ago. Broader selections of patients are now offered ablation with a similar level of procedural outcome and safety standards.

Catheter Ablation of Arrhythmias

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1984
The ability to localize the sites of origin of arrhythmias or those sites critical to their maintenance or their life-threatening consequences has provided the potential for ablating these arrhythmias by delivering shocks through catheters at these critical sites.

Catheter Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation

Annual Review of Medicine, 2000
▪ Abstract  Atrial fibrillation is frequently disabling and resistant to antiarrhythmic drugs. Curative treatment by catheter-based ablation has been shown to be feasible either by achieving long linear lesions, mainly in the left atrium, or by targeting the initiating focus, most frequently in the pulmonary veins.

Anesthesia for Catheter Ablation Procedures

Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2014
Over the past decade, the role of the anesthesiologist has evolved continuously into a sine qua non component of the EP team, having intimate knowledge of the complex interventional procedures and the specific demands of the EP environment. With emphasis on coordination of care, resource optimization, and implementation of a climate of teamwork and ...

Catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2003
Most patients with ventricular tachycardia (VT) associated with structural heart disease should receive an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator as initial therapy. Patients with symptomatic recurrences of tachycardia, including those with multiple defibrillator shocks, are considered for ablation.

Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation

Medical Clinics of North America, 2008
Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia associated with significant morbidity including angina, heart failure and stroke. Medical therapy remains suboptimal with significant side effects and toxicities, as well as a high recurrence rate. Catheter ablation or modification of the atrio-ventricular node with pacemaker implantation provides rate control

CATHETER ABLATION OF ACCESSORY PATHWAYS

Cardiology Clinics, 1997
Radiofrequency catheter ablation is a highly effective, curative treatment for arrhythmias related to accessory atrioventricular connections. Compared with medical therapy, ablation is more definitive, is more cost-effective, and is associated with a lower risk of proarrhythmia.

Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation

Cardiology Clinics, 2009
Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia associated with significant morbidity, including angina, heart failure, and stroke. Medical therapy remains suboptimal, with significant side effects and toxicities, and a high recurrence rate. Catheter ablation or modification of the atrioventricular node with pacemaker implantation provides rate-control but ...
