Radiofrequency catheter ablation in infants and children

open access: yesSA Heart, 2017
Background: Diagnosis and treatment of paediatric arrhythmias remain challenging. Antiarrhythmic - drugs beta-blockers, class Ic and class III drugs, were the only treatment available for many years. Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) was introduced for adult patients in 1981 and has been used for children since 1989.

Atrial fibrillation and its determinants after radiofrequency ablation of chronic common atrial flutter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Aim. Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is a major clinical issue and its occurrence is the main problem after catheter ablation of atrial flutter. The long-term occurrence of AFib after common atrial flutter ablation is still matter of debate as it may ...

Advanced ablation strategies for management of post-surgical atrial arrhythmias. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Post-surgical arrhythmias include a wide range of arrhythmias occurring late after cardiac surgery and represent a complex substrate for catheter ablation either because of extended scar and remodeling or because of limited access to the area of interest.

Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of Atrial Tachycardia [PDF]

open access: yesKorean 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 ...
