Postintervention Dyspnea after Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation: Think of a Phrenic Nerve Injury
Case Reports in Cardiology, 2017 Phrenic nerve injury (PNI) is a rare complication of catheter ablation therapy, most commonly observed in cryoablation of the right side pulmonary veins.

Radiofrequency catheter ablation of supraventricular tachycardia.
Indian pacing and electrophysiology journal, 2002 Supraventricular tachycardias are quite common in clinical practice. Medical treatment of supraventricular tachycardia often involves regular intake of drugs for several years. Problems of drug therapy include poor efficacy and bothersome side effects including proarrhythmia. This has lead to the development of non-pharmacological therapies. Arrhythmia

Thermal modelling for endocardiac radiofrequency ablation: comparison of hyperbolic bioheat equation and Pennes bioheat equation with finite element method [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 The objectives of this study are to model the endocardiac radiofrequency (RF) ablation procedure and to employ the Hyperbolic Bioheat Equation (HBE), which takes the thermal wave behaviour into account, comparing the results with those obtained using the common Pennes Bioheat Equation (BE) method.

Cosserat Rods for Modeling Tendon-Driven Robotic Catheter Systems [PDF]
arXivTendon-driven robotic catheters are capable of precise execution of minimally invasive cardiac procedures including ablations and imaging. These procedures require accurate mathematical models of not only the catheter and tendons but also their interactions with surrounding tissue and vasculature in order to control the robot path and interaction. This
