Detection of the origin of atrial tachycardia by 3D electro‐anatomical mapping and treatment by radiofrequency catheter ablation in horses

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2022
Background Atrial tachycardia (AT) can be treated by medical or electrical cardioversion but the recurrence rate is high. Three‐dimensional electro‐anatomical mapping, recently described in horses, might be used to map AT to identify a focal source or ...

ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY: Radiofrequency catheter ablation of supraventricular arrhythmias [PDF]

open access: greenHeart, 2001
For most types of supraventricular arrhythmias medical treatment with antiarrythmic drugs is not completely effective. In addition to poor or sporadic efficacy, such drugs can be associated with a number of bothersome and even fatal side effects (although rarely), proarrhythmia, cost, and inconvenience.

Autonomic effects of radiofrequency catheter ablation [PDF]

open access: bronzeEuropace, 2000
Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation has become the treatment of choice for a variety of supraventricular tachycardias. Autonomic dysfunction may occur during application of RF current; these abnormalities resolve quickly when current delivery is terminated.

Role of Catheter Ablation in Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia [PDF]

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2005
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

ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY: Radiofrequency catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia [PDF]

open access: bronzeHeart, 2000
Management of patients with ventricular tachycardia (VT) is often difficult. Drug treatment is often ineffective. Implantable defibrillators terminate episodes but do not prevent them. Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation offers potential arrhythmia control without the adverse effects of antiarrhythmic treatment.

Simplified method for esophagus protection during radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation - prospective study of 704 cases

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2015
Introduction:Although rare, the atrioesophageal fistula is one of the most feared complications in radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation due to the high risk of mortality.Objective:This is a prospective controlled study, performed ...

Shortness of breath after AV ablation: case of left phrenic nerve palsy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2013
Phrenic nerve palsy has been recognized as a complication of catheter ablation with a prevalence of 0.11–0.48% after atrial fibrillation ablation, independent of the type of ablation catheter or energy source, likely due to the anatomical ...

Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of Atrial Tachycardia [PDF]

open access: greenKorean Circulation Journal, 2000
Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) has been established as an effective and safe treatment modality for atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia and WPW syndrome. Surgical ablation or direct current catheter ablation had been performed to cure focal atrial tachycardia (AT), however, these treatments had limitations such as the need of open ...

Cryoablation to improve catheter stability and ablation success in the right atrioventricular groove

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2021
Catheter instability can limit ablation success of arrhythmia substrates at the right atrioventricular groove. We describe cases where cryoablation improved catheter stability, enabling ablation success.

Radiofrequency Versus Cryoballoon Catheter Ablation for Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation: Durability of Pulmonary Vein Isolation and Effect on Atrial Fibrillation Burden

open access: yesCirculation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology, 2021
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Background: Recurrent paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) after catheter ablation is presumably caused by failure to achieve durable pulmonary vein isolation (PVI).
