Outpatient radiofrequency catheter ablation

Herz, 1998
Outpatient radiofrequency catheter ablation has been shown to be safe and cost effective in the treatment of supraventricular tachycardias due to atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia and atrioventricular reentry tachycardia. Complications secondary to vascular access are similar to those during outpatient cardiac catheterization procedures ...

Radiofrequency multielectrode catheter ablation in the atrium [PDF]

Physics in Medicine and Biology, 1999
We developed a temperature-controlled radiofrequency (RF) system which can ablate by delivering energy to up to six 12.5 mm long coil electrodes simultaneously. Temperature feedback was obtained from temperature sensors placed at each end of coil electrodes, in diametrically opposite positions.

Radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial tachycardias

American Heart Journal, 1996
Atrial tachycardias are frequently unresponsive to medical therapy. His bundle ablation has been proposed as a palliative treatment to treat symptoms and prevent development of tachycardia-mediated cardiomyopathy. Experience with catheter ablation directed at the atrial origin of the tachycardia remains limited. We reviewed the initial success rate and

Basic Aspects of Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 1994
RF Ablation. Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation has become the treatment of choice for many symptomatic cardiac arrhythmias. It is presumed that the primary cause of tissue injury by RF ablation is thermally mediated, resulting in a relatively discrete homogeneous lesion.

Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation: Indications and Complications

Pediatric Cardiology, 2000
Radiofrequency catheter ablation was first described in pediatric patients in the early 1990s. Since then, multiple advances in the technology and understanding of radiofrequency ablation have allowed this technique to blossom into one of the most powerful therapeutic tools available to the pediatric electrophysiologist.

Long‐term efficacy and safety of radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation in patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices and transvenous leads

Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2019
Long‐term efficacy and safety are uncertain in patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) and transvenous leads (TVL) undergoing radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF).

Effect of obstructive sleep apnea and its treatment of atrial fibrillation recurrence after radiofrequency catheter ablation: A meta‐analysis

Journal of Evidence-Based Medicine, 2018
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) have an increased the risk of developing atrial fibrillation (AF). However, it remains unclear if patients with OSA carry a higher risk of recurrent AF after successful catheter ablation. This meta‐analysis was

The porous media theory applied to radiofrequency catheter ablation

International journal of numerical methods for heat & fluid flow, 2019
Purpose Recently, the porous media theory has been successively proposed for many bioengineering applications. The purpose of this paper is to analyze if the porous media theory can be applied to model radiofrequency (RF) cardiac ablation.

Cryoballoon vs. radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation: a study of outcome and safety based on the ESC-EHRA atrial fibrillation ablation long-term registry and the Swedish catheter ablation registry.

Europace, 2018
AIMS Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), the standard for atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation, is most commonly applied with radiofrequency (RF) energy, although cryoballoon technology (CRYO) has gained widespread use.

Radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial tachycardia

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Medicine, 1995
Abstract Background: Atrial tachycardia is a relatively uncommon arrhythmia which usually responds poorly to antiarrhythmic drug therapy. Transcatheter radiofrequency (RF) ablation is a new therapeutic modality for patients with atrial tachycardia. Aim: This study analyses our early experience with the treatment of atrial tachycardia by this technique.
