Download or read book Fluoroscopy Reduction Techniques for Catheter Ablation of Cardiac Arrhythmias written by Mansour Razminia, MD and published by Cardiotext Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catheter ablation has become a widely used approach to treating various cardiac arrhythmias. Traditionally, catheter ablation procedures are guided by fluoroscopic imaging to help understand catheter position during mapping. The potentially significant exposure to radiation to the patient, physician, and staff increases risks of radiation exposure-related disease. Also, the protective lead garments worn increases risks of orthopedic injury. Current advanced electroanatomic mapping and intracardiac echocardiography technology have allowed the development of endocardial catheter ablation techniques without the use of fluoroscopy safely and effectively. A host of expert and experienced authors present a practical overview of the rationale and methodology for a low- or zero-fluoro environment in the electrophysiology lab with the critical goal of significantly reducing radiation exposure to the patient, physician, and staff. This practical guide: -Covers the entire spectrum of commonly (and less commonly) performed ablation procedures via endocardial approach. -Discusses general principles that are applicable across ICE and EAM platforms. -Will assist the electrophysiologist and their team to safely and effectively work toward the significant reduction in fluoroscopy utilization while also likely improving procedural safety, i.e., fewer complications, after the adoption of these techniques. -Includes a library of 50 videos, with 9 extended films (108 minutes) by Dr. Razminia detailing step-by-step procedures and techniques.

This book was released on 2000-11-02 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The exact mechanism of a cardiac arrhythmia becomes fundamentally important when treatment can be directed specifically toward that mechanism. Advances in body surface electrograms and mapping techniques have allowed the causes of ventricular tachyarrhythmias to be pinpointed, thus suggesting viable targets for ablation therapy. However, substantial anatomical and electrophysiological knowledge and catheter-handling skills on the part of the physician are prerequisites for successful ablative technique.
