Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation
Medical Clinics of North America, 2008Atrial 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, 1997Radiofrequency 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 Ventricular Fibrillation
Heart, Lung and Circulation, 2019Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a common and life-threatening arrhythmia resulting in sudden cardiac death (SCD). Due to the inherent challenges of mapping VF in humans, the underlying mechanisms that initiate and sustain this common arrhythmia are still poorly understood.

Adrenal Ablation by Venous Catheter
Annals of Internal Medicine, 1973Excerpt To the editor: When adrenalectomy is indicated for palliation of certain malignancies and for some patients with adrenocortical hyperfunction because of their poor surgical risk, a less thr...

Catheter Ablation for Cardiac Arrhythmias
New England Journal of Medicine, 2004Cardiac arrhythmias are common; some are life-threatening, others merely a nuisance. They are caused by abnormalities in impulse formation or conduction that lead to slow or fast, regular or irregular heart rhythms. It is not difficult to treat patients with slow rhythms: currently available pacemakers are able to adapt their function to the needs of ...

Catheter Ablation for Cardiac Arrhythmias
Medical Clinics of North America, 2001The safety and efficacy of catheter ablation for treatment of most types of cardiac arrhythmias are well established. These arrhythmias and arrhythmia substrates include AVNRT, accessory pathways, focal atrial tachycardia, atrial flutter, idiopathic ventricular tachycardia, and bundle-branch re-entry.

Robotic approach to catheter ablation
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2008The aim of this review is to introduce two novel techniques for catheter ablation of various arrhythmias in a remote-controlled fashion.The electromechanical system Sensei consists of two steerable sheaths that navigate conventional catheters via a 'master-slave' input device. The magnetic navigation system Niobe consists of two outer permanent magnets
