29 year old Tamara Lane just underwent a Catheter Ablation. She suffers from Supra Ventricular Tachycardia, which is an irregular heart beat. An Irregular heart beat is caused by extra pathways in the heart. To correct the problem, Doctors first pinpoint the problem areas. The Doctors insert catheters up the leg into the heart and stimulate the areas to recreate the irregular heart beat.
Doctors actually put burn marks on the heart to close the pathways.
After the procedure, most Patients can go home within 24 hours. Tamara Lane will go home the same day. I am relieved. Click here to send e-mail.
