What is the incidence of the embolic and bleeding complications in relation to pre- and post- periprocedure antithrombotic regimens in patients undergoing ventricular arrhythmia radiofrequency ablation (RFA)?
A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pattern suggestive of an embolic etiology has been described but, to date, there are no uniformly accepted criteria. Aim The purpose of the study is to describe MRI features of ischemic cerebral lesions occurring after transcatheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF). of the lesions (95% CI 0.9%–3.0%)
Air embolism is a rare but potentially fatal complication of left heart catheter ablation. We present a case of massive air embolism and introduce a 4-step approach to management.
ResultsWe identified 11 significant intervention-requiring complications associated with LAAC with or without Ablation procedure. The pericardial effusion or tamponade likely resulted from damage to the atrial appendage during LAAC device insertion.
The potential risk of embolic events during ablation in the left ventricle (LV) with a heated saline-enhanced radiofrequency needle-tip ablation catheter (SERF) has not been characterized.
This study aimed to analyze whether cancer affects the decision of radiofrequency ablation and to explore the efficacy and safety of radiofrequency ablation in AF patients with cancer.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients who were first diagnosed AF and identified who were with cancer. 1.83, P = 0.62).ConclusionsThe
ET Room B406A Fractional Flow Reserve-guided Complete or Culprit-only PCI in Patients With ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction A Multicenter Prospective Randomized Study Comparing the Incidence of Periprocedural Cerebral Embolisms Caused by Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation Between Cryoballoon and Radiofrequency Ablation Transseptal Versus Retrograde (..)
Mid cavity obstruction in HCM is associated with apical aneurysm, systemic embolism, and arrhythmias. Cases are on record, in which ablation of the fourth septal artery has been done to ameliorate the obstruction in mid cavity obstruction. The role of cath now a days is mostly for septal ablation.
A 34 yo woman with a history of HTN, h/o SVT s/p ablation 2006, and 5 months post-partum presented with intermittent central chest pain and SOB. If there are T-wave inversions and elevated trops in the context of persistent pain, think of other pathologies such as pulmonary embolism. This was sent by a colleague.
Furthermore, it includes the latest recommendations which specifically address AF and thromboembolic risk assessment, anticoagulation, left atrial appendage occlusion, AF catheter or surgical ablation, and risk factor modification and AF prevention. As such, the Class of Recommendation for catheter ablation has been upgraded.
