Summary |
Describes best practices in Ventricular Tachycardia and Fibrillation Ablation based on a consensus of the world's leading experts, based on the annual 'Venice Arrythmias' meeting. Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation has become a widespread, yet controversial, treatment modality in electrophysiology laboratories. Presents a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of all the most important and debated aspects of atrial fibrillation ablation. Covers all key topics, from pre- and intra-procedural management to best techniques and outcomes for patients with and without structural HD to Indicatio |
