During the past decade, catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) has evolved rapidly from an investigational procedure to its current status as a commonly performed in many major hospitals throughout world. Surgical AF, using either standard or minimally invasive techniques, is also world. In 2007, initial Consensus Statement on Catheter and AF Ablation was developed joint effort Heart Rhythm Society, European Association, Cardiac Arrhythmia Society.1 The 2007 document collaboration...

Saad, Kazuhiro Satomi, Martin K.

Surgical AF, using...
The objective of this study was to assess the incidence and impact asymptomatic arrhythmia in patients with highly symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF) who qualified for radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation.In prospective study, 114 at least 3 documented AF episodes together corresponding symptoms an ineffective trial 1 antiarrhythmic drug were selected RF ablation. With use CARTO, circumferential lesions around pulmonary veins linear roof left atrium along isthmus placed. A continuous,...
Catheter ablation is potentially curative treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF). However, complications are more frequent and severe compared with other procedures. We investigated the complication rate in 1,000 AF procedures a high-volume center examined possible risk factors.One thousand consecutive circumferential pulmonary vein radiofrequency ablations were performed symptomatic, drug-refractory AF. Major defined as ones that life threatening, caused permanent harm, required...
Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia. Introduction: tachycardia (VT) late after myocardial infarction is an important contributor to morbidity and mortality. This prospective multicenter study assessed the efficacy safety electroanatomical mapping in combination with open‐saline irrigated ablation technology for chronic recurrent mappable unmappable VT remote infarction. Methods Results: In 8 European institutions, 63 patients (89% males) were enrolled study. All had presented a...
Substrate Modification BIFA in AF Ablation Background Catheter ablation strategies beyond pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) are less well defined. Increasing clinical data indicate that fibrosis is a critical common left (LA) substrate patients (pts). Objective We applied new modification concept according to the individual fibrotic as estimated from electroanatomic voltage mapping (EAVM) 41 pts undergoing catheter AF. Results First, EAVM during sinus...
AimsIdentifying suitable candidates for circumferential left atrial pulmonary vein ablation (CPVA). CPVA is widely used as an strategy in patients with fibrillation (AF). Understanding the predictors of long-term success single catheter procedure AF based on can help to identify those who have a high risk recurrence this approach.
Abstract Objectives Thoracic trauma (TT) is the third most common cause of death after abdominal injury and head in polytrauma patients. Its management still a very challenging task. The purpose this study was to analyse risk factors affecting outcome high-volume centre efficacy specialised team level 1 centres. Patients methods Between January 2003 December 2012, data all patients admitted accident emergency (A&E) department were prospectively collected at German Trauma Registry (GTR)...
During the past three decades, catheter and surgical ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) have evolved from investigational procedures to their current role as effective treatment options for patients with AF.Surgical AF, using either standard, minimally invasive, or hybrid techniques, is available in most major hospitals throughout world.Catheter AF even more widely available, now commonly performed procedure.In 2007, an initial Consensus Statement on Catheter Surgical Ablation was...
