Brief Summary
Patients sometimes suffer from life-threatening abnormal heart racing that originates from the lower chamber of the heart. These patients will often need an implantable defibrillator which has the abi...
Detailed Description
Several conventional and advanced mapping techniques are frequently utilized to accomplish a successful catheter ablation. Many of these mapping techniques (activation mapping, entrainment mapping) ar...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- All patients presenting with sustained monomorphic VT who are amenable to VT ablation.
- Patients referred for ablation of supraventricular tachycardia.
Exclusion
- Patients presenting with ventricular tachycardia if no sustained tachycardia can be induced, or if in that particular patient pace-mapping is known to be an inaccurate method of mapping (e.g. in bundle branch reentry VT or fascicular VT).
