The standard fixed or variable loop catheters used to identify the pulmonary vein potentials can confer technical difficulties during the ablation procedure, such as instability at the vein ostium and localized signal confusion with atrial far field."
Thomas Dresing, M.D."The purpose of this paper is to highlight a specialty approach for performing diagnostic recording, mapping and pacing protocols in the High Right Atrium (HRA) and Coronary Sinus (CS) currently utilized for Pulmonary Vein Antral Isolation (PVAI) ablations and Supraventricular Tachycardias (SVTs)."

Manoj Duggal, M.D."Atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is the most common cause of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, and accounts for approximately two-thirds of cases. Over the years, radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) has been so successful in treating this arrhythmia that it (RFCA) has become the treatment of choice." (January 2007)
