Ventricular tachycardia ablation in children

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2023
Introduction: The ablation of ventricular tachycardia, including premature ventricular contractions, is an approved, albeit infrequent procedure in pediatric patients. Data are scarce regarding the outcomes of this procedure.

Epicardial Ablation For Ventricular Tachycardia

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2012
Epicardial ablation has lately become a necessary tool to approach some ventricular tachycardias in different types of cardiomyopathy. Its diffusion is now limited to a few high volume centers not because of the difficulty of the pericardial puncture but

Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation [PDF]

Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2017
While catheter ablation (CA) of ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) was in the past often only considered after pharmacological options had been exhausted, substantial progress has occurred and CA is now an option that should be considered early when therapy of recurrent arrhythmia is needed. In patients with VAs without structural heart disease CA is highly

Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation [PDF]

Circulation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology, 2008
The use of ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation in patients with structural heart disease remains reserved primarily for those who experience repeated implantable cardioverter defibrillator shocks despite pharmacological and attempted pacing therapy.

Catheter Ablation for Ventricular Tachycardia [PDF]

Circulation, 2004
Sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) is an important cause of morbidity and sudden death in patients with heart disease.1 Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) terminate VT episodes, reducing the risk of sudden death. Recurrent VT develops in 40% to 60% of patients who receive an ICD after an episode of spontaneous sustained VT.

Updates in Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation [PDF]

Korean Circulation Journal, 2021
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) due to recurrent ventricular tachycardia is an important clinical sequela in patients with structural heart disease. As a result, ventricular tachycardia (VT) has emerged as a major clinical and public health problem. The mechanism of VT is predominantly mediated by re-entry in the presence of arrhythmogenic substrate (scar),

Zero‐fluoroscopy ablation for cardiac arrhythmias: A single‐center experience in Japan

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2021
Background Exposure to radiation during catheter ablation procedures poses a risk to the heath of both the patient and electrophysiology laboratory staff.

A Rare Case of a Primary Cardiac Tumor Presenting as Fatal Ventricular Tachycardia

Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications, 2022
Primary cardiac tumors are extremely uncommon. Here, we report the case of a patient with a primary left ventricular interstitial tumor presenting with hemodynamically unstable ventricular tachycardia.

Cardiac Magnetic Resonance for Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation and Risk Stratification

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Ventricular tachycardia is the most frequent cause of sudden cardiovascular death in patients with structural heart disease. Radiofrequency ablation is the treatment cornerstone in this population.

Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia [PDF]

Circulation, 2010
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) most commonly develops in patients with structural heart disease. Myocardial infarction results in collagen replacement interspersed with surviving myocardium, which alters impulse propagation, facilitating re-entry.1 Aside from the postinfarction substrate, scar-mediated VT occurs in patients with nonischemic ...
