Surgical procedure Radiofrequency ablation (RFA)[a] is a medical procedure in which part of the electrical conduction system of the heart, tumor or other dysfunctional tissue is ablated using the heat generated from medium frequency alternating current (in the range of 350500kHz).[2] RFA is generally conducted in the outpatient setting, using either local anesthetics or conscious sedation anesthesia.

Abnormalities may affect all aspects of the heart. The heart is a muscle, and as such, abnormalities of heart muscle may occur, including abnormal thickening, weakening of the squeezing strength, as well as stiffening of the muscle. The heart is an electrical organ, so arrhythmias (abnormalities of heart rhythm, and hence abnormality of the electrical system) may affect the top of the heart--relatively commonly--causing atrial fibrillation, for example, while arrhythmias of the bottom chambers of the heart can be more risky, causing ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation Continue reading →
