Radiofrequency ablation by a standard 4mm irrigated flexible tip catheter
Maria Cecilia Hospital
Cotignola, RA, Italy
Maria Pia Hospital
Torino, TO, Italy
Percentual success of the procedure during the hospitalization
Procedural success is defined as evidence of bidirectional block of cava tricuspidal istmus. The presence of block will be evaluated by mapping the electrical activation of the right atrium before and after pacing from thecoronary synus.
Time frame: Up to 4 days
Percentual success of the procedure at 3 months from procedure
Procedural success is defined as evidence of bidirectional block of cava tricuspidal istmus. The presence of block will be evaluated by mapping the electrical activation of the right atrium before and after pacing from thecoronary synus.
Time frame: 3 months
Percentual success of the procedure at 6 months from procedure
Procedural success is defined as evidence of bidirectional block of cava tricuspidal istmus. The presence of block will be evaluated by mapping the electrical activation of the right atrium before and after pacing from thecoronary synus.
