Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation – A Complete Guide for Cardiology Applications

Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation Introduction

Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation is a procedure used to treat certain types of abnormal heart rhythms. It works by sending energy through a thin tube (catheter) to destroy small areas of heart tissue that cause the irregular heartbeat. This procedure is minimally invasive and usually done in a hospital’s electrophysiology lab.

Precision Heat Therapy for Heart Rhythm Disorders

During Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation, a doctor inserts a catheter through a blood vessel, usually in the groin, and guides it into the heart. Once the catheter reaches the area causing the abnormal rhythm, it delivers radiofrequency energy to heat and destroy the faulty tissue. The procedure is guided by advanced imaging systems such as fluoroscopy and 3D mapping. Specialized catheters and electrophysiology monitors help identify the exact area responsible for the arrhythmia. Local aesthesia and sometimes mild sedation are used to keep the patient comfortable. This technique helps restore normal heart rhythm and reduces the need for long-term medication.

Why it’s done?

• To treat supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), which causes abnormally fast heartbeats.
• For patients with atrial fibrillation (AFib) who do not respond to medications.
• To manage ventricular tachycardia, a potentially life-threatening condition.
• When other treatments like medications or cardioversion fail or cause side effects.
