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, 2014Strategies 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 Atrial Fibrillation
Cardiology Clinics, 2009Atrial 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 ...

Catheter Ablation of Arrhythmias
Annals of Internal Medicine, 1984The 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 of Atrial Flutter
The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 1999Typical atrial flutter in humans is the consequence of a stable macro-reentrant circuit produced by the unique right atrial architecture providing anatomic barriers and functional blocks to conduction. Mapping studies have indicated that the so-called isthmus between the inferior aspect of the tricuspid annulus and the ostium of the inferior caval vein

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 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.

Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2017
Besides antiarrhythmic medication, there are now very good options for a potentially curative therapy by catheter ablation targeting the origin of the underlying arrhythmias in patients with complex congenital heart disease. Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of tomographic imaging (MRI or computed tomography) is helpful to understand the underlying

Catheter ablation in the year 2000
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2000After 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 ...

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.
