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 ...

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.

Catheter Ablation of Idiopathic Ventricular Arrhythmias Originating from the Para-Hisian area - QRS Morphology Change and Late Effect of the Ablation: Case Series [PDF]

open access: yesFolia Medica, 2020
Introduction: Radiofrequency catheter ablation of idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias originating in the para-Hisian region could be challenging because of a potential risk of iatrogenic atrioventricular block.

Atrial fibrillation gut syndrome: severe gastroparesis with pyloric spasm following radiofrequency catheter ablation of drug resistant symptomatic atrial fibrillation: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2023
Background Atrial fibrillation is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, and cardiac ablation is one of the treatment modalities for persistent symptomatic atrial fibrillation.

Catheter ablation using radiofrequency energy [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, 1990
AbstractRecently, transvenous catheter ablation using radiofrequency impulses has been applied in experimental animals as well as in humans. This review describes the biophysics, mechanisms, and tissue effects of radio‐frequency alternating current. Ablation of the AV‐junction has been performed in experimental studies as well as in a growing number of

Mitral valve perforation after left lateral accessory pathway ablation: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2022
Background Radiofrequency catheter ablation is considered to be a relatively safe procedure. This is an unusual case report in which severe mitral regurgitation was occurred after left lateral accessory pathway radiofrequency catheter ablation.

Contact force sensing in ablation of ventricular arrhythmias using a 56-hole open-irrigation catheter: a propensity-matched analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
PURPOSE: The effect of adding contact force (CF) sensing to 56-hole tip irrigation in ventricular arrhythmia (VA) ablation has not been previously studied.

Radiofrequency catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 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.

Autonomic effects of radiofrequency catheter ablation [PDF]

open access: yesEuropace, 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.

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 ...
