radiofrequency catheter ablation of type 1 atrial flutter
it has been well - established that common atrial flutter is due to intraatrial macroreentry and its reentry circuit locates in the right atrium. this reentry circuit has been characterized to involve an area of slow conduction identifiable electrophysiologically at the low posteroseptal right atrium and anatomical narrow isthmus snrrounded by the inferior vena capa, coronary sinus astium and t...
متن کاملRadiofrequency ablation of atrial flutter.
A33-year-old man with cardiac and pulmonary sarcoidosis developed ventricular tachycardia managed with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator and amiodarone therapy. Subsequently, episodes of atrial flutter triggered spurious therapies from the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator, and the patient underwent electrophysiological evaluation. Common atrial flutter (caudocranial septal and cou...
متن کاملTransvenous Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation for Atrial Flutter and Atrial Fibrillation
Transvenous radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFA) for treatment of atrioventricular (AV) reentrant tachycardia and AV nodal reentrant tachycardia is remarkably successful. To the best of my knowledge, there has not been a large randomized trial comparing RFA with other treatments for these tachycardias. The lack of such trials is due at least in part to the self-evident efficacy of RFA in this...
متن کاملRadiofrequency catheter ablation of common-type atrial flutter guided by conventional versus electroanatomical mapping.
Radiofrequency catheter (RF) ablation aiming the complete conduction block of the cavotricuspid isthmus has become treatment of choice for common type atrial flutter. Different approaches to guide the ablation procedure are used. For the conventional approach multipolar catheters in the right atrium and in the coronary sinus are required to detect the induction of conduction block via the isthm...
متن کاملCatheter ablation of atrial flutter using radiofrequency energy.
Sixteen patients with type I atrial flutter underwent an attempt at radiofrequency catheter ablation (8 women, 8 men, mean age 53 +/- 11 years). The primary criterion used to identify sites for radiofrequency energy delivery was the identification of a fractionated electrogram. Radiofrequency energy was delivered for 20 to 30 seconds. Radiofrequency catheter ablation was acutely successful in 1...
