2024年2月2日 · Cardiac ablation is a treatment for irregular heart rhythms, called arrhythmias. It uses thin, flexible tubes called catheters and heat or cold energy to create tiny scars in the heart. The scars block the faulty signals that cause irregular heartbeats.

2024年11月7日 · Cardiac ablation (catheter ablation) is a minimally invasive procedure that creates scars to stop the electrical impulses that cause irregular heart rhythms. Healthcare providers can use cardiac ablation to manage abnormal heart rhythms that don’t respond to …

2024年10月24日 · Catheter ablation is a procedure that uses radiofrequency energy (similar to microwave heat) to destroy a small area of heart tissue that is causing rapid and irregular heartbeats. Destroying this tissue helps restore your heart’s regular rhythm. Catheter ablation destroys the abnormal tissue without damaging the rest of the heart.

2020年10月27日 · Surgical ablation, also known as maze surgery or Cox-maze procedure, aims to eliminate atrial fibrillation (A-fib). It is a form of open-heart surgery often performed while a...

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. The signals that tell the heart to beat can't pass through scar tissue. So the treatment helps block faulty signals that cause AFib.

2018年8月23日 · Cardiac ablation is a procedure performed by an interventional cardiologist, a doctor who specializes in performing procedures for heart problems. The procedure involves threading catheters...

2024年10月3日 · Surgical ablation involves cutting into your chest. There are three kinds: Maze procedure. Your doctor will usually do this while you're having open heart surgery for another problem, like a...

Also known as a cardiac ablation or radiofrequency ablation, this procedure guides a tube into your heart to destroy small areas of tissue that may be causing your abnormal heartbeat. Not everyone with a heart arrhythmia needs a catheter ablation.

2024年7月14日 · Cardiac ablation is a procedure that is used to scar small areas in your heart that may be involved in your heart rhythm problems. This can prevent the abnormal electrical signals or rhythms from moving through your heart.

2024年2月2日 · Cardiac ablation is performed by heart specialists (cardiologists) with special training in heart rhythm disorders (electrophysiologists). Mayo Clinic has one of the largest cardiac ablation practices, with skilled electrophysiologists working in the Electrophysiology Laboratory.
