So how does the Dr. do the burning? Stop the heart and burn, re-start and induce afib, then stop and burn? Is it possible to burn while in afib, or during normal rhythm? Never thought about this issue until I saw the video.
I've already wondered about this in the past Ken, but this video puts it in a whole new light! Just how on Earth DO these guys manage to place those RF burns with anything approaching precision?! I can see the appeal of a balloon approach as there must be a far better chance of getting the balloon to stay lodged in a PV than trying to place burns with a catheter.
Must say, I thought twice about watching that video..... but now I have..... whilst interesting it's definitely rather disconcerting!
