Catheter ablation of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.
Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation became first-line therapy for supraventricular tachycardia in patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome1–5 and atrioventricular (AV) nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT)6–11 in the early 1990s. High ablation success ( 90%) and low complication rates ( 5%) were found by numerous investigators.1–11 This article describes these ablation techniques with a foc...
متن کاملCatheter ablation techniques in patients with supraventricular tachycardia.
Catheter ablation is an experimental procedure that may prove useful for patients with drug-refractory supraventricular tachycardia. Current techniques involve the use of high-energy direct-current shocks, delivered via electrode catheters. These techniques have been used most commonly for ablating the atrioventricular (AV) junction in patients with supraventricular tachycardia. Such ablation m...
متن کاملRadiofrequency Catheter Ablation for Supraventricular Tachycardia
C atheter ablation for nonpharmacological management of pediatric patients with tachyarrhythmias has evolved during the past approximately 10 years. Direct-current energy ablation was initially used in some patients with drug-refractory, life-threatening tachyarrhythmias such as junctional ectopic-focus tachycardia and also for some children with left ventricular dysfunction due to incessant ta...
متن کاملRadiofrequency Catheter Ablation of Supraventricular Tachycardia
Radiofrequency catheter-mediated ablation is a recently developed technique of achieving cure of certain rhythm disorders, notably supraventricular tachycardia. In less than a decade, it has evolved from a theoretic concept to first line therapy for many patients, including those in the pediatric age group. The most common types of arrhythmias amenable to catheter ablation include supraventricu...
متن کاملMalignant Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia
A 63 year old male had a sudden episode of cardiac arrest during travel. He was resuscitated and cardioverted successfully with a semi-automatic defibrillator. The first ECG showed atrial fibrillation with inferior Q waves and he spontaneously reverted to sinus rhythm over the next few hours. The patient had been asymptomatic up to the episode of cardiac arrest and referred no prior history of ...
