Why the study?
Is transvenous catheter ablation using radiofrequency energy feasible and safe for the treatment of arrhythmias?
Is transvenous catheter ablation using radiofrequency energy feasible and safe for the treatment of arrhythmias?
Radiofrequency catheter ablation is a feasible and relatively safe technique for treating drug-refractory supraventricular arrhythmias, though further studies are needed for ventricular tachyarrhythmias and scarred tissue.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May guide ablation for refractory supraventricular arrhythmias; leaves open efficacy and safety in ventricular tachyarrhythmias.
Borggrefe et al. (1990) studied this question.
