Title: Status of ablation in patients with atrial tachycardia and flutter. Author: Lesh MD, Van Hare GF. Journal: Pacing Clin Electrophysiol; 1994 May; 17(5 Pt 2):1026-33. PubMed ID: 7518590. Abstract: RF catheter ablation directed at the atrial substrate is a safe and effective means of treating patients with drug refractory atrial tachycardias and atrial flutter, avoiding the need for His-bundle ablation and permanent pacing. While further follow-up will be needed to evaluate the incidence of later recurrence or emergence of new arrhythmias, this is a promising technique for a growing cohort of patients.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
