For patients who cannot tolerate medication or when the medication is ineffective, ablation for atrial flutter is often used. Ablation is a surgical procedure aimed at permanently correcting the heart's electrical system. The ablation process involves threading a thin, flexible tube to the heart ...
Catheter ablation is a low-risk procedure. The most common problem is bleeding or infection where the tube goes into your blood vessel. Also, close to a third of people who have ablation will feel a newheart flutter. If medication doesn’t stop it, you may need a second ablation. ...

Due to the toxicities and limited efficacy of medical therapy, nonpharmacologic strategies for the management of atrial fibrillation in patients with heart failure are often employed. This chapter describes the techniques, clinical indications, and the devices utilized to perform catheter-based ablation ...

Forty-two patients had prior left atrial catheter ablation procedures (79%), one patient prior ablation for classic atrial flutter (2%), four patients had prior surgery for congenital heart disease (8%), and six patients (11%) had no previous cardiac intervention. Acute procedural success, ...
* In a clinical trial 81.6% of people with paroxysmal AFib had no atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, or atrial tachycardia after a single ablation procedure at 12 months.Important Safety Information The FARAPULSE Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) System is intended for the isolation of the pulmonary ...
