Cardiac Arrhythmias and Treatments
Cardiac Arrhythmias and Treatments is a research topic within Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine. Science Explorer counts 64k research works in it since 1950. 12.7% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.
This cluster of papers focuses on the use of catheter ablation, including techniques such as radiofrequency ablation and electroanatomic mapping, for the treatment of various cardiac arrhythmias such as ventricular tachycardia, supraventricular tachycardia, and atrial flutter. The papers also discuss the management of cardiomyopathy induced by tachycardia and the identification of scar substrate for ablation procedures.
