Background Cardiac surgery carries a heightened risk of bradyarrhythmias, but current permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation ...

Ventricular tachycardia is an abnormally fast heart beat (with three or more consecutive heart beats at least 100 beats per minute) that originates from one of the ventricles in the heart. The ...

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive surgery that generates heat to destroy tissues. When used for ventricular tachycardia, RFA blocks the electrical pathway that causes fast heart ...

Catheter ablation of ventricular arrhythmias, one of the most rapidly growing procedures in cardiac electrophysiology, is associated with magnetic resonance imaging–detected brain lesions in more than ...

The electrophysiology market is projected to reach $15.1 billion by 2028, with increasing demand for ventricular ablation to treat life-threatening heart rhythm disorders and vascular closure ...

“When there’s a hole in the heart, either at the atrial or ventricular level, the heart just can’t work efficiently,” explains Benjamin Barnes, a pediatric cardiologist at the Blalock-Taussig-Thomas ...

What is ventricular septal defect surgery for children? Ventricular septal defect (VSD) surgery is a type of heart surgery. It's done to correct a hole between the left and right ventricles of the ...

Figure 4. Right ventricular voltage map of a patient with Tetralogy of Fallot and scar-related ventricular tachycardia (VT). Pace maps before ablation (PM Pre-Abl) from the conal free wall under the ...
