Use Of A Unique Long Pre-curved Sheath To Facilitate Femoral Placement Of Coronary Sinus Catheters

METHODS Catheterization of the coronary sinus (CS) from the femoral vein is widely used during electrophysiologic procedures. Access to the CS may be difficult. To address this problem we explored the utility of a long pre-formed (SAFL) sheath in a cohort of consecutive patients requiring CS cannulation in the electrophysiology laboratory. This unique sheath has distal curvatures in 2 planes, p...

Comparison of operator radiation exposure during coronary sinus catheter placement via the femoral or jugular vein approach.

AIMS To evaluate and compare operator radiation exposure during the catheter placement in the coronary sinus via the femoral vein with a steerable catheter or the jugular vein with a fixed curve catheter. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 156 patients undergoing electrophysiological study or radiofrequency catheter ablation were prospectively assigned in a random fashion to either the femoral ve...

A case of an ablation catheter entrapped in the pulmonary vein during atrial fibrillation ablation requiring open heart surgery for removal☆

Case Report A 64-year-old woman with a 3-year history of drug refractory paroxysmal atrial fibrillation was referred to our hospital for catheter ablation. Preprocedual echocardiography and enhanced computed tomography (CT) revealed no structural heart disease or anatomic anomalies (Figure 1A). Catheter ablation of the atrial fibrillation was performed under conscious sedation. Two 8.5-F long s...

Targeted left ventricular endocardial pacing using a steerable introducing guide catheter and active fixation pacing lead.

AIMS Cardiac resynchronization therapy via the coronary sinus (CS) is not always possible. Left ventricular (LV) endocardial lead placement is a potential alternative. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of endocardial LV pacing using a steerable lead introducer and active fixation polyurethane lead. METHODS AND RESULTS Endocardial LV lead placement was attempted in nine p...
