Medications are the first-line treatment for atrial fibrillation, or A-fib. When they begin to fail, one option is ablation.

While a common non-drug treatment called ablation exists for the heart rhythm disorder atrial fibrillation (a-fib), the procedure can be more problematic for women than for men. A-fib, a chaotic ...

For people with the abnormal heartbeat atrial fibrillation, a procedure called catheter ablation may do more than return the heart to its normal rhythm. It may also ward off mental decline and ...

A minimally invasive heart procedure to correct irregular heart rhythms called catheter ablation may reduce the risk of stroke enough that some patients can discontinue blood thinners, according to a ...

AMSTERDAM, The Netherlands – In patients with atrial fibrillation, delayed enhancement magnetic resonance imaging (DE-MRI) performed before ablative treatment can stage the degree of damaged heart ...

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 ...

Convergent hybrid ablation is an innovative treatment for a type of irregular heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation (AFib). The treatment is a two-stage procedure that combines the expertise of our ...

There is new research involving a condition called Atrial Fibrillation (a-fib), and researchers are looking into the best ways to treat it. A-fib is the most common type of heart arrhythmia and it ...
