Journal ArticleDOI

Sustained atrial tachycardia in adult patients. Electrophysiological characteristics, pharmacological response, possible mechanisms, and effects of radiofrequency ablation.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates the diverse mechanisms and electropharmacological characteristics of AT in adults and demonstrates that radiofrequency ablation of various types of AT could achieve high success and low recurrence rates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radiofrequency catheter ablation of sustained intra-atrial reentrant tachycardia in adult patients. Identification of electrophysiological characteristics and endocardial mapping techniques.

TL;DR: Mechanism of intra-atrial reentrant tachycardia could be confirmed by the electrophysiological characteristics, and radiofrequency ablation energy delivered to a critical area in the atrialReentrant circuit is safe and effective for the treatment of intra.atrial tachycardsia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Longitudinal Clinical and Electrophysiological Assessment of Patients With Symptomatic Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome and Atrioventricular Node Reentrant Tachycardia

TL;DR: Disappearance of the original tachycardia and changing patterns of tachyCardia, also with an increase in symptom scores and attack frequency, suggested that a detailed evaluation of these events is important and early intervention with radiofrequency ablation would be helpful.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrophysiological Mechanisms in Successful Radiofrequency Catheter Modification of Atrioventricular Junction for Patients With Medically Refractory Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation

TL;DR: RF modification of right mid/posteroseptal area is feasible in 92% of patients with paroxysmal Af and simple elimination of slow pathway might be inadequate for control of ventricular rate in patients with little difference in conduction properties between fast and slow pathways.
