Epicardial Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia with Manual Controlled External Irrigation in a Patient with Nonischemic Cardiomyopathy

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2009
We describe a patient with nonischemic cardiomyopathy who underwent radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation for a drug-refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT). RF ablation from a left ventricular (LV) endocardial site failed to eliminate the VT.

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

Increasing Infusion Times of Hyperpolarized [1‐13C]Pyruvate in a Mouse Brain Maintain Lactate Generation and Approach Pseudo‐Steady State Metabolism

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To investigate whether varying delivery times of hyperpolarized [1‐13C]pyruvate, enabled by the increased apparent T1 dissolved in deuterium oxide (D2O), affects the observed kinetics of glycolytic brain metabolism in vivo. Methods Eighteen healthy mice were injected with 300 μL of hyperpolarized [1‐13C]pyruvate dissolved in D2O at ...

Periprocedural complications after laser balloon ablation procedures for atrial fibrillation: An analysis using a nationwide claims database

Heart Rhythm O2
Background: Evidence regarding the periprocedural safety of laser balloon (LB) catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) is scarce. Objective: We aimed to investigate the periprocedural safety of LB ablation for AF compared with that of either ...

Interventional oncology in children: Where are we now?

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
Abstract Paediatric Interventional Oncology (IO) lags behind adult IO due to a scarcity of specific outcome data. The suboptimal way to evolve this field is relying heavily on adult experiences. The distinct tumour types prevalent in children, such as extracranial germ cell tumours, sarcomas, and neuroblastoma, differ strongly from those found in ...

Force‐sensing catheters during pediatric radiofrequency ablation: The FEDERATION Study [PDF]

, 2017
Background Based on data from studies of atrial fibrillation ablations, optimal parameters for the TactiCath (TC; St. Jude Medical, Inc) force‐sensing ablation catheter are a contact force of 20 g and a force‐time integral of 400

Catheter ablation of right ventricular outflow tract tachycardia using contact force guidance [PDF]

, 2014
Outflow tract tachycardias (OTT) originating from the right or left ventricular outflow tract are thought to be benign. However, symptoms can be disabling and deterioration of left ventricular function may occur with a high arrhythmia burden.

Catheter Ablation: Evolution and Efficiencies

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The present review includes a discussion the goals and pitfalls of efficiency in the medical profession, a historical perspective on the evolution of catheter ablation in the field of electrophysiology (EP), and the data regarding the relationship between efficiency and outcomes in the EP lab. Focus on efficacy is critical to maximize resource
