How Catheter Ablation for Arrhythmia is performed
Catheter ablation is usually performed in the catheterization laboratory, using radiofrequency or cryoenergy, and combined with 3D mapping and image fusion if necessary. A common practice is to insert a catheter through a blood vessel, locate the abnormal conduction or trigger point, and apply energy to the target area to isolate or interrupt conduction. Anesthesia and anticoagulation strategies are assessed by specialists. Postoperative monitoring of heart rhythm and puncture site aims to reduce arrhythmia recurrence and improve symptoms. The above is general health information, not medical advice; the specific plan is subject to specialist assessment and hospital protocol.
