  • Table of Contents

Now in its second edition, this practical guide offers clear-headed guidance to the successful application of catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation. Edited by three globally-recognized clinician-educators and written by practitioners with vast experience using ablation to treat atrial fibrillation, the book concentrates on clinically-relevant information that providers can put to immediate use caring for patients.

Providing a practical approach to this technically challenging and rapidly evolving field, this 28 chapter manual is designed to educate practitioners about the process of performing a successful ablation for atrial fibrillation. The authors emphasize “how to” details while providing detailed descriptions of specific tasks related to the ablation procedure. They supplement their explanations with multiple diagrams, photographs and figures.

In addition to thorough coverage of the procedure, mapping systems and interpretation of electrogram recordings, the book also covers staffing, training and equipment requirements; peri-procedural care; complications and how to manage a suboptimal result; and includes commentary on controversial issues such as differing energy sources and how to manage persistent AF. Hot topics such as new noninvasive imaging techniques, the treatment of challenging left atrial flutters, options for persistent atrial fibrillation and when a redo ablation is needed; and novel application of ablation targeting the autonomic nervous system are also discussed. This Second Edition: 

  • Takes a clear-headed practical approach to ablation of atrial fibrillation - long on actionable, clinically-relevant guidance, succinct and to-the-point on the theory behind the procedure
  • Edited by three leading, internationally-known electrophysiologists with extensive experience in ablation for atrial fibrillation
  • Written by international team of experts reflecting global best practices from centres with considerable experience in the use of catheter ablation

In a user friendly format designed to serve the needs of new and experienced electrophysiologists, electrophysiology fellows, electrophysiology nurses and lab staff one concise reference provides everything the clinician needs to know about this complex procedure.
