Heart Beat

Radiofrequency Ablation (RF Ablation) is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat specific types of arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms) by targeting and destroying small areas of heart tissue that are causing irregular heartbeat. By using radiofrequency energy (similar to microwave heat), this procedure safely ablates (destroys) the specific part of the heart responsible for the arrhythmia, thereby restoring a normal heart rhythm.

RF Ablation is commonly recommended for patients suffering from arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, or ventricular tachycardia, especially when medications or other treatments have failed to provide relief.

How Does RF Ablation Work?

Radiofrequency ablation works by delivering targeted electrical energy through a catheter to the area of the heart that is responsible for the abnormal rhythm. This energy generates heat, which creates a small scar in the tissue, disrupting the abnormal electrical signals and preventing them from causing arrhythmias.

Who Needs Radiofrequency Ablation?

RF Ablation is typically recommended for individuals with arrhythmias that are not well controlled with medication or other treatments. Common conditions treated with RF ablation include:

RF ablation is considered when arrhythmias cause significant symptoms such as palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, fainting, or fatigue and when medication is ineffective or causes unwanted side effects.

The RF Ablation Procedure

Radiofrequency Ablation is performed in a controlled hospital setting, typically in an electrophysiology (EP) lab. Here’s an overview of the procedure:
