Supports propofol or isoflurane use in pediatric RFCA; confirms neither alters conduction parameters for EP assessment.
Does propofol or isoflurane anesthesia alter cardiac conduction in children undergoing radiofrequency catheter ablation for tachydysrhythmias compared to baseline anesthesia?
Neither propofol nor isoflurane significantly alters sinoatrial or atrioventricular node function in pediatric patients undergoing radiofrequency catheter ablation.
Lavoie et al. (1995) studied this question.
