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...

The 49 patients experienced 179 episodes of atrial flutter requiring electric conversion. Right atrial clots occurred in 30 patients (61.2%). Twenty-three of 30 patients had an atriopulmonary Fontan (76.7%), 4 patients had a lateral caval tunnel had clots in the Fontan conduit and all three ...
COPD can damage nerve fibers that connect to the heart and cause unusual heartbeats calledarrhythmia.Atrial fibrillation(AFib) is the most common arrhythmia. In a study of more than 1.3 million people with COPD, about 18% also had AFib. It’s caused by erratic beating in your heart’s two ...

Complications were noted in 18 cases (1.8%) which included ventricular fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, malignant VPBs, conduction disturbances, asystole following hyperventilation (HV), complete SA block following HV, atrial flutter following HV, hypotension and severe angina ...
