2024年4月9日 · Atrial fibrillation ablation is a treatment for an irregular and often very fast heartbeat called atrial fibrillation (AFib). The treatment uses heat or cold energy to create tiny scars in an area of the heart.

2022年12月15日 · Ablation for atrial fibrillation (AFib) uses either hot or cold energy to destroy the tissue that’s causing an electrical disturbance in the heart. It can be very successful in restoring a...

Ablation is a procedure to treat atrial fibrillation. It uses small burns or freezes heart cells to cause some scarring on the inside of the heart. This helps break up or insulate the electrical signals that cause irregular heartbeats.

2022年11月1日 · If you have atrial fibrillation (afib) — a heart rhythm disorder marked by a rapid, irregular heart rate — you may have wondered about catheter ablation. For this therapy, a doctor guides a thin flexible tube (catheter) through a large vein up into the heart.

2024年10月3日 · Cardiac ablation can also treat atrial fibrillation (AFib), a type of irregular heartbeat. If this is the case, your doctor might call it AFib ablation. The doctor may try cardiac...

2023年3月6日 · Ablation is one of several procedural and medical interventions used to control AFib symptoms and reduce stroke risk. In standard thermal ablation procedures, a physician threads tiny instruments to the heart via a vein or artery.

2024年1月23日 · Cardiac ablation is a highly effective treatment for atrial fibrillation (AFib). Learn about the three types of ablation for AFib and how they work. People with AFib have five times the risk of stroke.

2023年11月10日 · Mayo Clinic electrophysiologist Christopher V. DeSimone, M.D., Ph.D., and cardiologist Kyle W. Klarich, M.D., review indications that an early rhythm-controlling approach for atrial fibrillation may be beneficial. Dr. DeSimone discusses ideal patients who may be candidates for first line cardiac ablation therapy.
