Ablation Success in Various Arrhythmias: When It Is Appropriate to Recommend Ablation?
Abstract:
Cardiac arrhythmia is an abnormal electrical activity of the heart. It can be divided into rhythms with increased electrical activity (tachyarrhythmia) and those with reduced electrical activity (bradyarrhythmia). Ablation therapy has a role in tachyarrhythmia, but this role varies from being limited in inappropriate sinus tachycardia to being a class 1 indication in typical atrial flutter. A balanced approach in recommendation for ablation therapy for the management of tachyarrhythmias involves knowledge of the interplay between the risk, benefit, success rate, and alternatives with advances in mapping and ablation therapy.
