Mapping and Ablation of a Perisinusal Atrial Tachycardia with Noncontact Mapping

Perisinusal atrial tachycardia may represent a challenging situation due to unsustained burst characterizing the arrhythmia, sensitivity to bumping, and potential complications including sinus node ablation. This case describes the use of a noncontact mapping system to map and ablates this arrhythmi...

Description
Summary:Perisinusal atrial tachycardia may represent a challenging situation due to unsustained burst characterizing the arrhythmia, sensitivity to bumping, and potential complications including sinus node ablation. This case describes the use of a noncontact mapping system to map and ablates this arrhythmia. Benefit of this technology is described. (PACE 2013; 36:e11–e14)
