People experiencing atrial fibrillation that can’t be sufficiently managed by medication have another option in Clark County. Over the last few years, Dr. James Reiss, a cardiologist at PeaceHealth ...

"The risk/benefit ratio may be different in different populations with paroxysmal AF, such as those with serious heart disease, valvular heart disease, and heart failure. But risk of drug therapy is ...

The electrophysiology team at the Montreal Heart Institute used cryoablation (ablation using cold) to treat a patient suffering from atrial fibrillation, the most common form of cardiac arrhythmia, ...

ESC Congress: New Research Highlights First-Line Use of Cryoablation as Highly Effective, and with Improved Quality of Life Scores Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a progressive condition that impacts more ...

A national study is shedding light on how to more effectively treat atrial fibrillation (AF) -- a common heart rhythm problem associated with increased risk of stroke and heart failure. The study ...

PFA was noninferior to cryoablation for first recurrence of atrial tachyarrhythmia in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Tissue-selective energy delivery and short application times offer ...

Atrial fibrillation is the irregular and rapid beating of the upper two chambers of the heart (the atria). It may be classified as paroxysmal, persistent or permanent. It is the most common type of ...

Announcing a new article publication for Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications journal. Cryoablation (CRYO) is a novel catheter ablation technique for atrial fibrillation (AF). However, ...

The electrophysiology team at the Montreal Heart Institute (MHI) used cryoablation (ablation using cold) to treat a patient suffering from atrial fibrillation, the most common form of cardiac ...

There are several surgical ablation methods to treat atrial fibrillation; however, the relative efficacy of each scheme is unknown. Patients with permanent atrial fibrillation undergoing valvular ...
