Key result
Fluoroscopy-free ablation of right accessory pathways using a three-dimensional navigation system was successful and without complications in 95% of pediatric patients.
Why the study?
Does a fluoroscopy-free, single-catheter approach using 3D navigation achieve successful and safe ablation in pediatric patients with right accessory pathways?
Observational (n=21)
Does a fluoroscopy-free, single-catheter approach using 3D navigation achieve successful and safe ablation in pediatric patients with right accessory pathways?
Fluoroscopy-free radiofrequency ablation of right accessory pathways in children using a 3D navigation system and a single-catheter approach is feasible, safe, and highly successful.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May reduce fluoroscopy exposure in pediatric right AP ablation; leaves open need for randomized trials before practice change.
Drago et al. (2002) conducted an observational in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome due to a right accessory pathway (n=21). Fluoroscopy-free ablation using a three-dimensional navigation system was evaluated on Successful radiofrequency application without complications. Fluoroscopy-free ablation of right accessory pathways using a three-dimensional navigation system was successful and without complications in 95% of pediatric patients.
