Catheter Ablation for ERS

2017
Since its first clinical evidence in 2008, there have been only few clinical reports of ablation in early repolarization syndrome (ERS). What is still undetermined is whether the mechanism of the ablation effect is due to the suppression of the trigger or substrate modification.

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 Ventricular Fibrillation

Heart, Lung and Circulation, 2019
Ventricular 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.

Association of atrial tissue fibrosis identified by delayed enhancement MRI and atrial fibrillation catheter ablation: the DECAAF study.

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2014
IMPORTANCE Left atrial fibrosis is prominent in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Extensive atrial tissue fibrosis identified by delayed enhancement magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been associated with poor outcomes of AF catheter ablation ...

Catheter Ablation of Cardiac Arrhythmias

2015
In humans, the typical range of the resting sinus heart rate is 50–90 beats per minute (bpm); most average healthy individuals have resting rates in the 60–70 bpm range. Bradycardia (slow heart beat) is a term used to refer to any heart rate 100 bpm.

Impact of Female Sex on Clinical Outcomes in the FIRE AND ICE Trial of Catheter Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation

Circulation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology, 2018
Background: Data on predictors of long-term clinical outcomes after catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) are limited. We sought to assess the association of baseline covariates with clinical outcomes in the 750 patients with drug-refractory ...

Catheter ablation in the year 2000

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2000
After its introduction in 1987, radiofrequency catheter ablation became established as a safe and effective therapy for the cure of many cardiac arrhythmias in people. The possibility of assessing the relationship between the anatomical target and the electrophysiologic changes produced by radiofrequency pulse delivery has also provided significant ...

Temporal trends of in‐hospital complications associated with catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation in the United States: An update from Nationwide Inpatient Sample database (2011–2014)

Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2018
Catheter ablation is widely accepted intervention for atrial fibrillation (AF) refractory to antiarrhythmic drugs, but limited data are available regarding contemporary trends in major complications and in‐hospital mortality due to the procedure.

Catheter ablation for ventricular tachycardia

Internal Medicine Journal, 2010
AbstractSudden cardiac death due to ventricular arrhythmias remains the most common cause of death in developed nations. Implantable cardioverter defibrillators have been shown to improve mortality in high‐risk groups for ventricular tachyarrhythmias, but they are not curative, with the risk of arrhythmia recurrence remaining unaltered.
