    Journal: Am J Cardiol; 1998 Aug 01; 82(3):391-2. PubMed ID: 9708675.
    Abstract:
    In a series of 14 patients undergoing transseptal catheterization for ablation of left-sided accessory pathways, hydrogen appearance time was used to detect left-to-right shunting after removal of the catheter. Six of the 12 patients who had no evidence of shunt before catheterization had evidence of shunting after the procedure.
