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.

Radiofrequency catheter ablation of supraventricular arrhythmias [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 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.

Technical advance in silico and in vitro development of a new bipolar radiofrequency ablation device for renal denervation

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background Renal denervation with radiofrequency ablation has become an accepted treatment for drug-resistant hypertension. However, there is a continuing need to develop new catheters for high-accuracy, targeted ablation.

Anatomical characteristics of pulmonary veins for the prediction of postoperative recurrence after radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundThe relationship between focal pulmonary vein potential and atrial fibrillation (AF) has been confirmed. Pulmonary vein (PV) isolation and circumferential pulmonary vein ablation have been the most commonly used procedures of radiofrequency ...

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

open access: yes, 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.

Bipolar Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation for Ventricular Arrhythmias

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
A minority of premature ventricular contractions (PVC) and ventricular tachycardias (VT) have an intramural origin, which represents a challenge for conventional radiofrequency ablation. Bipolar ablation has the potential ability to create deeper and more transmural lesions and has been demonstrated to be optimal treatment in these cases.
