DOES THE LEVEL OF ECTOPIC ACTIVITY AFFECT THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CATHETER ABLATION OF ATRIAL ECTOPIES
Abstract
То assess the effectiveness of radiofrequency ablation of atrial focal arrhythmias depending on the level of ectopic activity, 123 patients aged 6-69 years (mean 21.2±4.2 years) were examined following the invasive treatment of atrial focal arrhythmias.
