EPS and RFA surgery with 3D CARTO system

What is EPS and RFA surgery with 3D Carto?

EPS and RFA surgery with 3D Carto is a minimally-invasive procedure that uses radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and electro-physiology (EPS) to ablate (destroy) cardiac tissue in order to treat cardiac arrhythmias. The procedure is conducted using 3D mapping technology in order to accurately pinpoint the exact locations of the affected tissue.

What are the benefits of EPS and RFA surgery with 3D carto?

EPS and RFA surgery with 3D Carto offers several benefits over traditional cardiac ablation procedures. It is a less invasive procedure, meaning that it requires a shorter hospitalization and recovery time. Additionally, it offers higher precision in targeting the exact location of the affected tissue, reducing the risk of complications associated with traditional ablation procedures.

What are the risks of EPS and RFA surgery with 3D carto?

A: As with any medical procedure, there are risks associated with EPS and RFA surgery with 3D Carto. These include infection, bleeding, and damage to nearby tissue. Additionally, there is a risk of the procedure not being completely successful and further treatments may be needed. It is important to speak to your doctor about any potential risks before undergoing the procedure.

What is the success rate of EPS and RFA surgery with 3D Carto?

The success rate of EPS and RFA surgery with 3D Carto is typically high, with studies showing rates ranging from 85-90%. However, it is important to speak to your doctor about the potential success rate given your specific condition.

How long does EPS and RFA surgery with 3D Carto take?

The procedure typically takes anywhere from 2-4 hours, depending on the complexity of the case and the amount of tissue that needs to be ablated.

Is EPS and RFA surgery with 3D Carto painful?

The procedure typically does not cause any pain. However, depending on your individual case, you may experience some discomfort during the procedure. Your doctor will be able to provide you with more information about the potential discomfort associated with the procedure.
