以實證角度看冷凍消融與射頻消融對陣發性心房顫動患者的差異
An Empirical Perspective on the Differences Between Cryoablation and Radiofrequency Ablation in Ppatients with Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation
摘要
心房顫動與中風、心衰竭及認知障礙息息相關，嚴重影響生活品質並增加醫療和照護成本，隨著人口老化，心房顫動的患病率急劇上升已成為一個緊迫的公共衛生問題，如何預防、減緩和控制心房顫動發生嚴重的併發症是一重要議題。臨床上，常以抗心律不整藥物治療心房顫動，但效果有限，所以導管消融已成為藥物難治型心房顫動的治療基石，目前常用的導管消融包括射頻消融術及近年蓬勃發展的冷凍球囊消融術，本文目的是期望透過實證角度看冷凍消融與射頻消融對陣發性心房顫動患者的差異，以利臨床醫療人員了解照護相關個案之依據。

Atrial fibrillation is closely associated with stroke, heart failure, and cognitive impairment, severely affecting quality of life and increasing medical and care costs. With the aging population, the prevalence of atrial fibrillation has risen sharply, making it an urgent public health issue. Preventing, mitigating, and controlling the occurrence of severe complications related to atrial fibrillation is an important issue. In clinical practice, antiarrhythmic drugs are commonly used to treat atrial fibrillation, but their effectiveness is limited. Therefore, catheter ablation has become the cornerstone of treatment for drug-refractory atrial fibrillation. Currently, commonly used catheter ablation techniques include radiofrequency ablation and cryoballoon ablation. The purpose of this article is to examine the variances between cryoablation and radiofrequency ablation in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation from an empirical perspective. This analysis aims to assist clinical healthcare professionals in comprehending the foundation for caring for such cases.
