[Transvascular intracardiac ablation--on the current status of the method in the treatment of tachyarrhythmias]. 1987

D Pfeiffer, and K J Rostock, and K Rathgen

A survey is given on the method of the transvasal intracardiac ablation in the treatment of atrial and ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Experimental fundaments, indication, method and possible complications are reported. Own results on five patients with His bundle ablation are described. A possible further development of the method is the enlargement of the His bundle ablation to the ablation of focal arrhythmias, Kent's fibres and ventricular tachycardias without evocation of a total atrioventricular block. Alternative techniques of the cauterization, the laser ablation and the high frequency coagulation are described.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D011183 Postoperative Complications Pathologic processes that affect patients after a surgical procedure. They may or may not be related to the disease for which the surgery was done, and they may or may not be direct results of the surgery. Complication, Postoperative,Complications, Postoperative,Postoperative Complication
D002036 Bundle of His Small band of specialized CARDIAC MUSCLE fibers that originates in the ATRIOVENTRICULAR NODE and extends into the membranous part of the interventricular septum. The bundle of His, consisting of the left and the right bundle branches, conducts the electrical impulses to the HEART VENTRICLES in generation of MYOCARDIAL CONTRACTION.

D004562 Electrocardiography Recording of the moment-to-moment electromotive forces of the HEART as projected onto various sites on the body's surface, delineated as a scalar function of time. The recording is monitored by a tracing on slow moving chart paper or by observing it on a cardioscope, which is a CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY. 12-Lead ECG,12-Lead EKG,12-Lead Electrocardiography,Cardiography,ECG,EKG,Electrocardiogram,Electrocardiograph,12 Lead ECG,12 Lead EKG,12 Lead Electrocardiography,12-Lead ECGs,12-Lead EKGs,12-Lead Electrocardiographies,Cardiographies,ECG, 12-Lead,EKG, 12-Lead,Electrocardiograms,Electrocardiographies, 12-Lead,Electrocardiographs,Electrocardiography, 12-Lead
