A cardiac transplant recipient with atrial flutter underwent successful catheter ablation. Five weeks after the procedure, the patient died of a myocardial infarction. The autopsy and histological findings are described and correlated with the electroanatomic map obtained during the ablation. Due to the...
Vein damage during the procedure happens to one in 500 patients. A small surgery is required to repair the vein when this occurs. Another surgical risk during ablation for atrial flutter is the possibility of blood filling the sac around the heart. This occurs in approximately one out of 200...
A 26 year old woman with a diagnosis of limb girdle muscular dystrophy and peripartum cardiomyopathy underwent orthotopic heart transplantation using standard atrial anastomoses. Recurrent atrial flutter was demonstrated in the absence of histological evidence of cellular rejection. Radiofrequency ablation of...
Heart failureDisease progressionAims The aim of this study was to study the risk of death and development of arrhythmia and/or subsequently heart failure after an atrial flutter ablation procedure compared with an atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation procedure.doi:10.1111/ijcp.13258...

MIAMI, FL — Case volume and age may both be significant predictors of complications fromcatheter ablationofatrial flutter(AFL), suggests a new retrospective analysis of nearly 90,000 patient procedures conducted in the US[1]. Using data from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) on catheter abla...
Define ablation. ablation synonyms, ablation pronunciation, ablation translation, English dictionary definition of ablation. n. 1. Surgical excision or amputation of a body part or tissue. 2. The erosive processes by which a glacier is reduced. 3. Aerosp
Of the patients assigned to catheter ablation, 1006 (90.8%) underwent the procedure. Of the patients assigned to drug therapy, 301 (27.5%) ultimately received catheter ablation. In the intention-to-treat analysis, over a median follow-up of 48.5 months, the primary end point occurred in 8.0...

* 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 ...
