MIT-alumni-founded Thermedical advances novel deep-tissue ablation technology to address critical unmet needs in severe ventricular tachycardia ...

Thermedical has treated the first patient in a pivotal clinical trial of its saline-enhanced radiofrequency (SERF) ablation ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Patients with scar-related ventricular tachycardia (VT) who received VT ablation plus a subcutaneous ICD had ...

Biomedical engineering researcher Shijie Zhou brings a computational approach to the quest for better treatments for ...

SAN FRANCISCO -- Noninvasive stereotactic radiotherapy (RT) for refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT) achieved outcomes similar to catheter ablation with substantially fewer serious adverse events ...

Patients with structural heart disease are at risk for life-threatening ventricular tachycardias (VTs). Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) can terminate VT, but often at the cost of ...

Intramural needle ablation using in-catheter, heated saline-enhanced radiofrequency was effective in reducing ventricular tachycardia burden for high-risk patients failing one to five prior ablations ...

If you have ventricular tachycardia, your doctor may give you medicine to slow your heart rate down. You might also need a catheter ablation. In this procedure, a doctor threads a thin tube through an ...

In patients with ischaemic cardiomyopathy, an implanted cardioverter–defibrillator, and recurrent ventricular tachycardia despite the use of antiarrhythmic drugs, catheter ablation is more effective ...

We report the case of a 56-year-old man who had sudden palpitations, lightheadedness, chest pain, and dyspnea. Paramedics arrived within about 10 minutes after the onset of symptoms and found that the ...

Ventricular tachycardia is a common and lethal complication after myocardial infarction. Here we show that focal transfer of a gene encoding a dominant-negative version of the KCNH2 potassium channel ...
