Mashup Score: 0New Device Helps Prevent Complication During Common Heart Procedure - 11 month(s) ago
May 26, 2023 — Atrial fibrillation, or AFib , is the most common heart rhythm problem, affecting millions of Americans and greatly increasing their risk of stroke and heart failure. For some with AFib, a catheter ablation is used to burn or freeze the precise area causing the problem to restore a normal heart rhythm. While this method is effective in treating AFib, the energy from the catheter…
