Is Single-View Fluoroscopy Sufficient in Guiding Cardiac Ablation Procedures?
The CARTO XP ablation system provides real-time data on 3D, color-coded maps of the electrical activity of the heart; however, it is expensive and can only use a dedicated costly magnetic catheter per patient intervention. The purpose of our study is to shorten the duration of the radiofrequency ablation procedure and increase its efficacy by developing an affordable prototype catheter navigati...
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 Without Fluoroscopy: Current Techniques And Future Direction.
Background: Catheter ablation is the treatment of choice for most forms of SVT. Traditionally, fluoroscopy has been the primary tool for visualizing catheter position. However, newer, 3-dimensional mapping technologies offer multiple options for minimizing fluoroscopy use. We review our 8 year experience of a zero-fluoroscopy approach using the Ensite system, and discuss our current techniques....
متن کاملAustralia declared polio free.
For Australia to be declared polio free, evidence of the absence of circulation of wild poliovirus was required by the Regional Commission for the Certification of Eradication of Poliomyelitis in the Western Pacific in August 2000. Data on surveillance of poliomyelitis, acute flaccid paralysis (AFP), vaccine associated paralytic polio and enteroviruses were provided to document the absence of c...
متن کاملRadiofrequency ablation without the use of fluoroscopy – in what kind of patients is it feasible?
INTRODUCTION The aim of the study was to describe the experience in performing ablation without fluoroscopy. MATERIAL AND METHODS From 575 ablation procedures with CARTO performed in the period 2003-2008, 108 (42 M; age 40 ±16 years) were done without fluoroscopy. One patient had ablation using the Localisa system. There was one man with thrombocytopenia and two pregnant women. RESULTS Righ...
