Atrial fibrillation happens because of abnormal electrical signals in parts of your heart. Cardiac ablation stops those signals from triggering irregular beats by damaging the problem areas.

While ablation, like any other surgical procedure, carries some risks, they are rare when compared with the risk of living with severe AFib, which increases the likelihood of stroke or heart failure.

Convergent hybrid ablation is an innovative treatment for a type of irregular heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation (AFib). The treatment is a two-stage procedure that combines the expertise of our ...

While ablation, like any other surgical procedure, carries some risks, they are rare when compared with the risk of living with severe AFib, which increases the likelihood of stroke and heart failure.

AMSTERDAM -- Catheter ablation conferred large clinical benefits to people with end-stage heart failure and symptomatic atrial fibrillation (Afib) in the small CASTLE HTx randomized trial that was ...

CRABL-HF trial finds cryoballoon (CB) ablation is as safe and effective as radiofrequency (RF) ablation for correcting the root cause of atrial fibrillation (AF) in heart failure patients with a ...

Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of heart arrhythmia and cases of the potentially life-threatening condition are increasing. Up to 6 million Americans have been diagnosed with AFib and ...

AFib also can be triggered by an event such as an illness with a lot of inflammation like COVID-19. In the case of "holiday heart" AFib or even "weekend" AFib, it's tied to more alcoholic ...

Memorial Cardiac and Vascular Institute is one of the few exclusive centers in the U.S. offering the atrial fibrillation ablation procedure without the use of fluoroscopy.
