Successful Catheter Cryoablation for Atrial Fibrillation in Patients with Permanent Cardiac Pace-maker Implants
Abstract
In
daily practice, several methods including electrocardiography, 24-hour Holter
ECG monitoring, or event recorders are frequently used for diagnosis and
follow-up of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Although these tests
provide crucial information, they may be insufficient in selected cases. In
this case, we utilized intracardiac electrocardiogram recordings for both
diagnosis of AF and detection of its recurrence in a patient with a permanent
pace-maker who underwent AF ablation because of symptomatic and asymptomatic
paroxysmal AF episodes. Because patients with permanent pacemakers are
continuously monitored via intracardiac recordings, we believe that it is the
most definite method for both diagnosis and monitoring of treatment success.
