Key result
Bipolar radiofrequency ablation is an effective and safe method for treating resistant ventricular tachycardia originating from the thick interventricular septum.
Why the study?
Does bipolar irrigated radiofrequency ablation effectively treat resistant ventricular tachycardia with a septal intramural origin?
Does bipolar irrigated radiofrequency ablation effectively treat resistant ventricular tachycardia with a septal intramural origin?
Bipolar irrigated radiofrequency ablation using a custom setup with standard catheters is an effective and safe method for treating resistant ventricular tachycardia of septal intramural origin.
May support bipolar ablation in refractory septal VT; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.
Bipolar radiofrequency (RF) ablation is effective in treatment of ventricular tachycardia originating from thick interventricular septum. The RF generator and CARTO system can be used to precisely and safely perform ablation. Standard ablation catheter can be used with indifferent ablation electrode connected to the electrode receptacle in RF generator with custom-made cable.
