[EN] Catheter ablation (CA) is the most popular treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) with good results in paroxysmal AF, while its efficiency is significantly reduced in persistent AF. With the equipment used for CA ...
Atrial fibrillation patients can be classified into paroxysmal, persistent and permanent attending to the temporal pattern of this arrhythmia. The surface electrocardiogram hides this differentiation. A classification ...
[EN] To revert atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients requiring concomitant open-heart surgery, surgical ablation (SA) is one of the most effective procedures. However, this intervention is as- sociated with major side ...
[EN] Background:
Atrial fibrosis can promote atrial fibrillation (AF). Electroanatomic mapping (EAM) can provide information regarding local voltage abnormalities that may be used as a surrogate marker for fibrosis. Specific ...

[EN] Identification of reentrant activity driving atrial fibrillation (AF) is increasingly important to ablative therapies. The goal of this work is to study how the automatically-classified quality of the electrograms ...
BACKGROUND Atrial remodeling as a result of long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) induces substrate modifications that lead to different perpetuation mechanisms than in paroxysmal AF and a reduction in the ...

La fibrilación auricular (FA) es una de las arritmias cardiacas más comunes, la cual afecta alrededor del 10% de la población de más de 70 años. En FA, los impulsos eléctricos auriculares generados por el nodo sinusal son ...
[EN] Purpose: Atrial tachycardia (AT), flutter (AFL) and fibrillation (AF) are very common cardiac arrhythmias and are driven by localized sources that can be ablation targets. Non-invasive body surface potential mapping ...
[EN] Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of cardiac arrhythmia in clinical practice. Currently, catheter ablation for pulmonary-vein isolation is a well-established treatment for maintaining sinus rhythm when ...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most commonly clinically-encountered arrhythmia.
Catheter ablation of AF is mainly based on trigger elimination and modification of the AF
substrate. Substrate mapping ablation of complex ...

[EN] Catheter ablation (CA) remains the cornerstone alternative to cardioversion for sinus rhythm (SR) restoration in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Unfortunately, despite the last methodological and technological ...
Julián, M.; Alcaraz, R.; Rieta, J J(Elsevier, 2014-05-01)
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is today the most common sustained arrhythmia, its treatment being not completely satisfactory. Electrical activity organization analysis within the atria could play a key role in the improvement ...
[EN] Atrial cycle length (CL) is an important feature for the analysis of electrogram (EGM) characteristics acquired during catheter ablation (CA) of atrial fibrillation (AF), the commonest cardiac arrhythmia. Nevertheless, ...
