Describing in depth the procedural aspects of interventional techniques, the rationale for their use, and the available alternatives, this textbook aims to emphasize and adhere to the practical procedural aspects of interventional electrophysiology. It aims to guide the operator step-by-step through the procedures with the aid of illustrations. It also includes material on lead extraction techniques. The book covers radio frequency ablation, surgery, pacemakers, and implantable cardioverter defibrillator techniques.
Section 1 Interventional electrophysiology: organization of the interventional laboratory; catheterization and electrogram recordings; nursing care of patients undergoing interventional electrophysiology procedures; Tilt table testing as a tool of the invasive cardiac electrophysiologist. Section 2 Radiofrequency ablation: key morphological features of the normal and abnormal, modified and unmodified conduction system; catheter ablation of right free-wall accessory pathways and Mahaim fibers; ablation of posteroseptal accessory pathways; radiofrequency catheter ablative therapy for anteroseptal and midseptal accessory atrioventricular pathways; radiofrequency catheter ablative therapy for atrioventricular nodal reentrat tachycardia; complete AV ablation for management of atrial fibrillation; an electrophysiologic approach to catheter ablation of atrial flutter and tachycardia: from mechanism to practice; radiofrequency ablation of idiopathic ventricular tachycardia and bundle branch reentrat tachycardia; radiofrequency catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia in patients with coronary artery disease; new energy sources for ablation; future catheter designs for interventional electrophysiology. Section 3 Surgical ablation techniques: the ideal cardiac mapping system; surgical techniques in supraventricular tachycardias; surgical approach to atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation; surgical techniques for ventricular tachycardia ablation. Section 4 Implantable cardioverter defibrillators: indications and patient selection for ICD therapy; non-thoracotomy approaches to the implantation of cardioverter-defibrillators; implantation of ICD's in the electrophysiology laboratory; defibrillation threshold testing and intraoperative ICD evaluation; complications of cardioverter-defibrillator surgery, postoperative care, and patient follow-up; troubleshooting of patients with implantable cardiverter defibrillator; antitachycardia pacemakers: patient selection, appropriate programming and testing; programming of implantable cardioverter defibrillator. Section 5 Indications for permanent cardiac pacing; techniques for pacemaker implantation; complications of pacemaker implantation and troubleshooting; intravascular lead extractions: details and keys to success; follow-up techniques in antibradycardia pacing.
