Ablation of atrial fibrillation.
Fueled by dissatisfaction with pharmacologic strategies to treat atrial fibrillation (AF), the results of basic and clinical investigation into the understanding of AF initiation and maintenance mechanisms, and the explosive development in catheter-based technologies, AF ablation has matured from a purely investigational technique to a preferred, safe, and effective approach for curing AF, part...
متن کاملAblation of atrial fibrillation.
Recognition that the initiation of atrial fibrillation often is dependent on arrhythmogenic foci within the pulmonary veins1 opened a new chapter in our understanding of the mechanisms of atrial fibrillation, which in turn has led to dramatic improvements in our ability to ablate atrial fibrillation. Based on experimental studies and clinical studies that used a variety of catheter and surgical...
متن کاملHybrid Atrial Fibrillation Ablation
Treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) has evolved significantly during the last 3 decades. Successful surgical AF ablation was developed by the pioneering work of Dr James Cox in 1987 resulting in the development of the Coxmaze (CM) procedure.1 Further experience and incorporation of ablation technology allowed subsequent modifications to increase efficacy and decrease morbidity, resulting in t...
متن کاملAtrial fibrillation ablation techniques.
We performed a survey on current atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation techniques used for catheter ablation of AF among the European Heart Rhythm Association Research Network. The focus of this questionnaire is on the ablation strategy, such as the use of different lesion sets or sites of ablation in the various forms of AF, and on the technical aspects of catheter ablation with respect to energy ...
متن کاملAtrial fibrillation ablation.
Radiofrequency catheter ablation is currently used widely and successfully to treat a variety of arrhythmias, and ablation for atrial fibrillation represents the frontier of arrhythmia research. Development in many areas will offer to the electrophysiologic community a more rational and effective background upon which select patients for ablation and identify the optimal ablative strategy.
