HOW IS AN ATRIAL FIBRILLATION (AF) ABLATION PROCEDURE PERFORMED?
In this short video, leading London Cardiologist and Electrophysiologist Dr Boon Lim, explains how an (Atrial Fibrillation) AF ablation is performed using radiofrequency energy to isolate the pulmonary veins. In this video Dr Lim uses accurate anatomical information with a 3D moving beating video of the heart to illustrate the approach. In this video Dr Lim, who practices at Welbeck Heart Health in Central London explains:
1) What is the approach to AF ablation from the groin?
2) How exactly is an AF ablation performed?
3) Why is an AF ablation performed?
4) What is the best technique for performing at AF ablation
5) How long does an AF ablation take to perform?
