Fluoroscopy Reduction Techniques for Catheter Ablation of Cardiac Arrhythmias

Catheter ablation has become a widely used approach to treating various cardiac arrhythmias. Traditionally, catheter ablation procedures are guided by fluoroscopic imaging to help understand catheter position during mapping. The potentially significant exposure to radiation to the patient, physician, and staff increases risks of radiation exposure-related disease. Also, the protective lead garments worn increases risks of orthopedic injury. Current advanced electroanatomic mapping and intracardiac echocardiography technology have allowed the development of endocardial catheter ablation techniques without the use of fluoroscopy safely and effectively. A host of expert and experienced authors ...

Intracardiac Echocardiography: A Handbook for Electrophysiologists

A focus on intracardiac echocardiography (ICE), with an emphasis on practical use during electrophysiological procedures This illustrated text, complemented by over 50 instructional videos, presents description, rationale, and instruction in ICE utilization for the complete range of currently performed EP procedures, including mapping and ablation procedures, device implantation procedures, and all common variations on these procedures. ICE is the only continuous real-time imaging modality with widespread utilization by electrophysiologists: ~Reliably and accurately visualize intracardiac and extracardiac structures and placement of catheters within the heart chambers. ~Observe anatomic detail otherwise invisible. ~Potentially improve procedural safety and efficacy. This text is written and edited by experts with extensive experience and knowledge that they have imparted to the reader. The editors have previously collaborated on a related textbook from Cardiotext Publishing, Fluoroscopy Reduction Techniques for Catheter Ablation of Cardiac Arrhythmias.

Cardiac Imaging in Electrophysiology

Cardiac arrhythmias are a major cause of death (7 million cases annually worldwide; 400,000 in the U.S. alone) and disability. Yet, a noninvasive imaging modality to identify patients at risk, provide accurate diagnosis and guide therapy is not yet available in clinical practice. Nevertheless, there are various applications of electrophysiologic imaging in humans from ECG/CT reconstructions, MRI to tissue Doppler investigations that provide supplimentary diagnostic data to the cardiologist. EP laboratories are experiencing an increase in volume, for both diagnostic and interventional electrophysiology studies, including mapping, ablation, and pacemaker implants. The equipment requirements for these procedures are stringent, include positioning capabilities, and dose management. This book is designed to review all of the current imaging methodologies that assist in diagnosis within the electrophysiology department.

Hands-On Ablation: The Experts' Approach, Third Edition

Clinically valuable approaches for the effective diagnosis and ablation of cardiac arrhythmias. Five years after the publication of the second edition, this updated and expanded Hands-On Ablation, The Experts' Approach, Third Edition is a comprehensive book that gives an inside look at leading electrophysiology labs throughout the world and provides the reader with useful information and tips for ablation procedures directly from the experts themselves. Fourteen new chapters cover subjects such as wire mapping of ventricular premature beats, alcohol ablation, and pulsed field ablation. Each chapter highlights the practical knowledge of the expert author with a specific procedure for ablation of arrhythmias. “Hands-on” detail helps translate new ideas and innovations into practice for the most state-of-the-art patient care. A valuable reference for every electrophysiology lab to help differentiate diagnostic challenges. Fully illustrated with over 160 videos and more than 580 figures.

Advances in Antiarrhythmic Drug Therapy, An Issue of Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics

Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) are electronic devices installed in the chest to prevent sudden death caused by abnormally fast heart rhythms. Cardiac electrophysiologists are the physicians usually responsible for implanting and maintaining these devices. The technology for ICDs is rapidly evolving, and the articles in this issue will help electrophysiologists to keep up to date with the current generation of ICDs, including selection of patients who are appropriate for the device, monitoring patients after the device is implanted, and troubleshooting problems with the device.
