Catheter Ablation for Ventricular Tachycardia [PDF]

Circulation, 2004
Sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) is an important cause of morbidity and sudden death in patients with heart disease.1 Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) terminate VT episodes, reducing the risk of sudden death. Recurrent VT develops in 40% to 60% of patients who receive an ICD after an episode of spontaneous sustained VT.

Effect of Catheter Ablation vs Medical Therapy on Quality of Life Among Patients With Atrial Fibrillation: The CABANA Randomized Clinical Trial

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2019
Importance Catheter ablation is more effective than drug therapy in restoring sinus rhythm in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), but its incremental effect on long-term quality of life (QOL) is uncertain.

Ultrasonic characterization of the pulmonary venous wall: echographic and histological correlation [PDF]

, 2002
Background: Pulmonary vein isolation with radiofrequency catheter ablation techniques is used to prevent recurrences of human atrial fibrillation. Visualization of the architecture at the venoatrial junction could be crucial for these ablative techniques.

Less dementia after catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation: a nationwide cohort study.

European Heart Journal, 2020
AIMS Accumulating evidence shows that atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with an increased risk of dementia. Catheter ablation for AF prolongs the duration of sinus rhythm, thereby improving the quality of life.
