GW25-e1486 Application Research of ILR tracking of atrial fibrillation radiofrequency ablation treatment

Radiofrequency ablation in treatment of atrial fibrillation.

Beside heart failure and metabolic syndrome, atrial fibrillation is termed the cardiovascular epidemic of the twenty-first century. Its increased morbidity and mortality is alarming. The present, most effective therapy of atrial fibrillation is catheter ablation. Successful ablation of atrial fibrillation prevents the occurrence and progression of electrical, structural and mechanic myocardium ...

Radiofrequency ablation for treatment of atrial fibrillation.

INTRODUCTION Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia which represents a major public health problem. The main purpose of this research is to evaluate the Radiofrequency (RF) ablation effects in the patients with chronic AF scheduled for cardiac surgery because of different heart diseases. METHODS The descriptive and prospective study was conducted on 60 patients with AF...

Radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation

[Surgical ablation of atrial fibrillation using radiofrequency].

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of intraoperative atrial fibrillation ablation using radiofrequency during mitral valve procedure. This report describes the early and midterms results. METHODS Between September 2003 and September 2005, 15 patients with mitral disease were operated. All patients were in chronic atrial fibrillation and with congestive symptoms despite full medication. T...

surgical radiofrequency maze iii ablation for treatment of atrial fibrillation during open heart surgery

background: atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia in patients with rheumatic mitral and other valve diseases who are candidates for valve repair surgeries. conversion of rhythm to sinus has positive effects on quality of life and lower use of medications. the aim of this clinical study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the radiofrequency ablation maze iii procedure in the treatment of a...
