pubmed:abstractText
Currently, analysis of sustained ventricular tachycardia postmyocardial infarction in man is limited by the time required for single point activation mapping and the difficulty in obtaining information during hemodynamically unstable arrhythmias. To overcome these limitations, we developed a multielectrode "basket" catheter for endocardial recording and pacing. This report describes the first clinical use of such a catheter to guide successful radiofrequency ablation of incessant sustained ventricular tachycardia postmyocardial infarction. This system may significantly shorten the time required for VT analysis and improve the results of radiofrequency catheter ablation for VT postmyocardial infarction.
