Insights

Slow pathway ablation effectively treats slow-fast atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT). A complex signal identification map precisely located the ablation target near the coronary sinus ostium for successful treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Electrophysiology
  • Medical Devices

Background:

  • Slow pathway (SP) ablation is a standard treatment for slow-fast atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT).
  • High success rates and low recurrence characterize established SP ablation therapies.
