Official Title: Ablation-Index Guided Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation in Patients With Ischemic Cardiomyopathy - a Prospective, Multicenter Registry.
Brief Summary:
Over the last decade, radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) has become an established treatment for ventricular arrhythmias (VA).Due to the challenging nature of visualizing lesion formation in real time and ensuring an effective transmural lesion, different surrogate measures of lesion quality have been used.The Ablation Index (AI) is a variable incorporating power delivery in its formula and combining it with CF and time in a weighted equation which aims at allowing for a more precise estimation of lesion…
