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

Catheter ablation and arrhythmia.
直流通電カテーテルアブレーションは,焼灼力は強いが,衝撃波発生等による重篤な合併症があり,普及しなかった.最近安全性の高い高周波通電法が開発され,薬物抵抗性の頻脈性不整脈に対し,広く臨床応用されるようになった.難治性の頻脈性心房細動,組動では主にHis束を焼灼して房室ブロックを作成し,ぺースメーカーを植え込む.房室結節回期頻拍に対しては,二重経路のうちのslow pathwayを選択的に焼灼し,房室ブロックの合併なく頻脈を完治させる. WPW症候群では,房室副伝導路を選択的に焼灼し,完全離断しうる.右室流出路起源等の特発性心室頻拍においても,その発生源を焼灼して完治させる.高周波通電法は安全性が高く,合併症はまれである.しかし深達度が浅いため,心筋梗塞や心筋症に伴う心室頻拍に対する有効性が低く ...

Detecting and monitoring arrhythmia recurrence following catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation. [PDF]
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia prompting clinical presentation, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The incidence and prevalence of this arrhythmia is expected to grow significantly in the coming decades.

Background: In patients with supraventricular tachycardia, catheter ablation is an important treatment option. However, approximately one quarter of these patients remain symptomatic, so sustainable strategies for the treatment of those patients who do ...

The year in cardiology: arrhythmias and pacing. [PDF]
During this last year, there has been much progress with regard to anticoagulant and ablation therapy for atrial fibrillation (AF). Apart from recently issued European Society of Cardiology Guidelines for the management of patients with supraventricular ...

Role of Catheter Ablation in Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia [PDF]
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy is a disorder characterized by frequent ventricular tachycardia originating from the right ventricle and fibro-fatty replacement of right ventricular myocardium. Though the disorder was originally

Increased baseline ECG R-R dispersion predicts improvement in systolic function after atrial fibrillation ablation. [PDF]
BackgroundAtrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction which may improve after AF ablation. We hypothesised that increased ventricular irregularity, as measured by R-R dispersion on the baseline ECG, would ...
