Extremely low-frame-rate digital fluoroscopy in catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation
Despite the technological advance in 3-dimensional (3D) mapping, radiation exposure during catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) continues to be a major concern in both patients and physicians. Previous studies reported substantial radiation exposure (7369-8690 cGy cm) during AF catheter ablation with fluoroscopic settings of 7.5 frames per second (FPS) under 3D mapping system guidance....
متن کاملCatheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice and can result in significant morbidity and mortality. Catheter ablation has become a feasible therapeutic option for the management of this complex and challenging arrhythmia. In this article, we have discussed the mechanism of atrial fibrillation, different imaging modalities used for atrial fibrillation ablati...
متن کاملRemote magnetic catheter navigation versus conventional ablation in atrial fibrillation ablation: Fluoroscopy reduction
BACKGROUND Percutaneous transcatheter radiofrequency ablation of atrial fibrillation with remote controlled magnetic navigation (RMN) has been shown to reduce radiation exposure to patients and physicians compared with conventional manual (MAN) ablation techniques. METHODS Catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation was performed utilizing RMN in 214 consecutive patients and MAN ablation techni...
متن کاملCatheter ablation of atrial fibrillation.
Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia associated with significant morbidity including angina, heart failure and stroke. Medical therapy remains suboptimal with significant side effects and toxicities, as well as a high recurrence rate. Catheter ablation or modification of the atrio-ventricular node with pacemaker implantation provides rate control but subjects the patient to the risks of a...
متن کاملCatheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation
Ma A frequent need for re-ablations and limited overall success rates are still major limitations of catheter ablation procedures for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). These limitations include not only the durability of the pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) lines, but also the pathophysiological understanding of the arrhythmia’s substrate. Long-term single procedure success rates in non-...
