1 gru 2022 · A. When undergoing catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AFib), women, compared with men, are more likely to be older, have more comorbidities and have a lower AFib-related quality of life, and they experience a greater risk of in-hospital adverse events, according to a recent study in Heart.
15 lis 2013 · Background— Atrial fibrillation ablation is an established therapy; however, limited data are available on associated complications. This systematic review determines the incidence and potential predictors of acute complications. Methods and Results—
15 gru 2022 · Bottom line. 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...
Introduction. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a global epidemic affecting an estimated 33 million patients, a number that is expected to double over the next two to three decades (Figure 1) [1, 2, 3, 4].
9 kwi 2024 · 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.
