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

The Role of Imaging in Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation. [PDF]

Diagnostics (Basel)
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with structural heart disease. While catheter ablation has become a cornerstone in VT management, recurrence rates remain substantial due to limitations in electroanatomic mapping (EAM), particularly in cases of deep or heterogeneous arrhythmogenic substrates ...

Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation [PDF]

Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2017
See Article by Vakil et al Since the first electrocardiographic recordings, ventricular tachycardia (VT) has been associated with both significant morbidity and mortality.1 VT most commonly occurs in the presence of structural heart disease that produces myocardial fibrosis, such as myocardial infarction, nonischemic cardiomyopathy, sarcoidosis, and ...

Ablation of ventricular tachycardia in 2021 [PDF]

European Heart Journal Supplements, 2021
Abstract Nowadays, ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) in structural heart disease is an increasingly used procedure. In fact, it is the most effective strategy in controlling arrhythmic burden in VT patients. The ablative approaches are the result of the last 10 years of technological advances (Catheters, 3D mapping systems) and ...

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),

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.

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.

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 ...

Alcohol Ablation for Ventricular Tachycardia

Methodist DeBakey Cardiovascular Journal, 2021
Catheter-based radiofrequency (RF) ablation is an effective, well-established therapy for ventricular tachycardia (VT). However, a large number of patients still have recurrences, particularly those with substrates arising from intramural locations that are inaccessible through endo- or epicardial catheter approaches.
