Cardiac ablation is very effective for people with typical atrial flutter, providing a cure for 90 percent of these patients. With atypical atrial flutter, cardiac ablation is successful for 60 to 70 ...

Atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation are types of abnormal heart rhythms. Learn about the similarities and differences between these two conditions.

Kardium has collected an FDA approval for its pulsed field ablation approach to treating atrial fibrillation, giving it the ...

Many would have returned with atrial fib anyway, researchers say of their small, largely successful test of pulmonary-vein isolation in patients without AF already getting ablation for atrial flutter.

Medtronic has announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the Affera mapping and ablation system featuring the Sphere-9 Catheter.

Left atrial appendage closure is a mechanical alternative to anticoagulation, but data regarding its use after atrial fibrillation ablation are lacking.

Atrial flutter produces a distinctive “sawtooth” pattern on an electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG), a test used to monitor the heart and diagnose heart rhythm disorders.

RHYTHM AI’s STAR Mapping uses novel computer algorithms to identify the causes of atrial fibrillation, using 3D mapping equipment to inform the ablation procedure.

Our goal was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cryoballoon ablation as compared with drug therapy as an initial treatment strategy in patients with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

“AcQBlate’s novel gold tip ablation catheter performed extremely well during the clinical IDE atrial flutter cases. Short procedural times, stable contact force, and less irrigation volume ...
