Ablation of the heart

Ablation of the heart (radiofrequency, catheter) is one of the most effective and radical methods of surgical treatment of heart rhythm disturbances. This technique allows for 80-98% to exclude later relapsing cases of tachyarrhythmias, which present a danger to life. Ablation of the heart does not involve an open heart operation. When using the radiofrequency technique, the effect is made through the catheter on the affected areas in the conducting structures of the organ.

Ablation of the heart is a minimally invasive method of surgical intervention, which has several varieties differing in the mechanism of action of the catheter. Radiofrequency surgery is performed using a thin and flexible catheter-conductor. It is injected into a blood vessel and led to a pathological source in the cardiac cavity. Then, by means of a catheter, an RF pulse is applied, which destroys a tissue site that provokes an abnormal rhythm in the cardiac muscle.

Ablation of the heart (radiofrequency) is used in the treatment of arrhythmias such as:

- fibrillation of the atria;

- atrial fibrillation;

- supraventricular tachycardia, including atrioventricular, reciprocal nodular tachycardia, as well as Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome;

- Individual types of ventricular tachycardia.

Indications for the use of this method of interference include idiopathic (causeless) atrial fibrillation (in the absence of organic pathologies), arrhythmia manifested by attacks, and persistent (persistent) arrhythmia.

In patients who have ablation of the heart, the reviews are in most cases positive. As practice shows, patients much more easily transfer it in comparison with an open operation on this organ. After using the radiofrequency method, complications are recorded with the least frequency. The recovery period takes a minimum period and passes almost painlessly. The radiofrequency method excludes the formation of stitches and postoperative scars. This method also eliminates the need for long-term use of anticoagulant medications after surgery.

Three-dimensional visualization is used for the surgical intervention. The use of graphics allows to determine with maximum accuracy the focus of the pathological impulse and to prevent undesirable damage to the cardiac wall and vessels.

Laser ablation

To date, varicose veins are a very common disease. As practice shows, more than half of the female population after reaching the age of fifty is facing this problem. Along with this, this disease is noted and at a younger age. And men are subject to this ailment.

Varicose veins not only spoil the beauty of women's legs, but also is accompanied by painful sensations.

The solution to the problem can be laser ablation (intravenous). This technique significantly contributes to the elimination of venous protuberances for several days from the start of therapy.

Laser minimally invasive therapeutic procedures are able to effectively get rid of varicose veins.

This technique can be used in outpatient settings and does not require the use of general anesthesia. The mechanism of action of the intravenous laser is based on the energy effect directed to the venous walls. At the same time, the restriction of blood flow to one or another area causes displacement of the direction of inflow in the region of functioning veins.

The use of modern laser technology can reduce the risk of perforation of the veins and increase the review in order to achieve the most high-quality and effective results of therapy.
