Dr Mehul Dhinoja, Consultant Cardiologist at BMI The London Independent Hospital, explains the catheter ablation procedure for patients and healthcare professionals. - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
I had an ablation performed years ago. I was only 20 yrs old.. They told me it would take no longer than 2 hours but it actually took 6 hours.. and I was awake the whole time.. the only discomfort I had was the burning in the chest. Nothing too serious.. I recovered very well and went home the next day.. medical team were awesome! I can finally move faster and excercise without having a heart rhythm episode.
When did you have your ablation and have you had any episodes since
This is the best play-by-play explanation of an Ablation available on TH-cam. I wish I had found it before my Ablation, which took place 3 days ago. My mind would have been more at peace, and I would have been less apprehensive about having it performed. So far, so good! I monitor my heart with an Apple Watch and the EKG's look phenomenal. Thank you Dr. Dhinoja for taking the time to explain this in a clear and concise manner. Also, a great shoutout to the team that worked on me at R.I. Hospital in the USA, and to all of the individuals who work in this field to alleviate the suffering associated with AFIB.
@WolfOfOdinn It was completely painless. I was sedated through the procedure and woke up 5 hours later. I went home the same day.
It takes about a day for the anesthesia to completely wear off, and you can only do light exercise for a week. After that it’s been smooth sailing.
Thank you Dr. Dhinoja. Excellent presentation. I am 1 month post ablation performed at St Paul's in Vancouver, Canada. In spite of almost daily episodes of AF in the first 2 weeks post ablation, it appears that symptoms are now rapidly diminishing. This ageing player will be back on the ice rink tonight. Your work is hugely appreciated!
This guy did my ablation 3 days ago...was quite funny seeing him on TH-cam!
Where is this doctor based? Thank you.
St Bart's hospital in London
Best explanation i've seen. Thank you
This is by far the best, most informative video on ablation that I've seen. I've had two. One cryo and the RF about a month ago. I'm in the U.S. but the OR there looked just like the one I was in. I can say the procedure is mostly painless and easy to go thru. The biggest pain was the tiny incision on either groin areas. I wouldn't hesitate to do it again if I had to. For those of you that are needing to have it done, rest assured that there isn't anything to worry about. :)
Good to hear I’m getting a catheter ablation on may 25. I’m very nervous
This is the best Catheter Ablation video I have seen so far, thank you Doctor...
I agree! This is the best explanation I have seen on here.
BMI Healthcare Thank You For Sharing This Video !!!!!
Well done! The best video about catheter ablation! The guy was really clear and instructive and demonstrate really knowledge on what he was talking about. He delivered the info on a very clear manner without faffing around.
Pro tip : you can watch movies on Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching a lot of movies lately.
@Arthur Wesley Yea, I have been watching on flixzone for years myself =)
Thank you Doctor Excellent information , the best video i've seen .
TY for explaining this so thoroughly. I have been worried about having this done, and you have helped tremendously.
I’m a 74 yo female treated with Sotalol and Cardioversion x4 which have not given me relief for more than a week. I am scheduled for Ablation in Manchester NH USA on 8/3/2020. This is an amazing video and I feel that I have a much better understanding of the procedure. Thank you!
This one is a very informative presentation sir
Understood what the procedure is like...
U r great doctor love from malayali
Great video, I have come back into atrial fibrillation for the second time now just waiting to have cardioversion for the second time, I am 57 and first had a-fib three years ago.
But by the sound of it this will happen again and again until further treatment like catheter ablation is done. Thanks so much for showing this video.
Wow this is a very good video thanks so much
thanks doc. having another one of these done soon was curious the difference between this ablation and the one i had for WPW. this answered that very well.
Excellent explanations!
Excellent, Thank you for the video..
Dr Mehul Dhinoja Thank you dis very useful video about catheter ablation !! Dis is the best video I ever seen . I had catetheter ablation a second time! A last one was 4 months ago and a m still on medication and I just will see my doctor who performed the ablation .. I taking noten and Amiodarone and I still have AFIB and a m dizzy all the time !! Even I had a black out !! End I don’t know why is happening with me !!A ablation wasn’t successful or the medication doing my problem !! If someone have any idea about please leave a message for me .A m just forget I m from Australia!! PS I was sent home 5 hours after the ablation !!!
Thank u so much for all the info I'm scheduled for this procedure on July 9th I'm a bit nervous about it but u have calmed those fears
This is an EXCELLENT lay person video for anyone with Afib or anyone taking care of Afib patients. Nicely done Dr Dhinoja!
Great video. I am 3 weeks post ablation performed by one of Dr Neil Davidson’s team in Manchester UK. After suffering from A Fib and flutter for years and the side effects of beater blockers I am extremely grateful for the procedure at no cost! as we have an excellent NHS. I don’t know what I was so anxious about in and out of hospital the same day. Yes I was a little uncomfortable for a few days but hey ho! It’s onwards and upwards for me.
How you doing now Linda?
I had one surgery in Dec of 2016. My wife passed and with the stress it can back after being free for 22 months. The new meds I am taking have helped but I am being on the safe side and getting it done again. Stress can bring it on.
Should Recieve a Noble Prize for all of the Technology and Doctors abilities doing such procedures....and as I've said earlier...This is why a Cardioligist get's paid the Big Bucks $ $ $ $ .....That's what my Dad always Said....
. Excellent video. Thank you.
THANK YOU FOR PRODUCING THIS VERY INFORMATIVE VIDEO, IT GIVES THOSE OF US WITH A-FIB HOPE FOR A MUCH BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE.
When you say warfarin, do you mean warfarin specifically or any other blood thinner including eliquis or xeralto?
Excellent - thank you. Having mine tomorrow
Excellent, informative presentation! Of all the videos I've watched this is by far the best. I had a PVI ablation done 2.5 years ago, not 100% successful so I'm having a 2nd one in 10 days, crossing my fingers that this one succeeds. Quality of life with afib is awful and I'm looking forward to getting my life back.
I had a catheter ablation exactly 2 weeks ago now and once I got over the effects of the anesthesia and all I have never felt better in my life
Richard Barry what was your recovery like the day’s following?
awesome. i hear it basically gets rid of anxiety.
Coach Simons The few days after were awful as I guess the effects of the general anesthesia wore off. I had so much energy I had to walk and walk - couldn’t run or do anything more strenuous for a week because of the risk of bleeding from the sites where they put the catheters in. Then after about three days I felt like my head had cleared and I saw everything differently - in a much more positive light. I had more energy and motivation than ever before. And no more anxiety and I actually felt like the depression that had been with me my whole life was now gone. Still am feeling great and more focused than ever.
This gives me hope. Thanks
@@richardbarry04553: I am struck by your comment. I too felt better than I have in years a few weeks after a procedure for atrial flutter. This procedure is miraculous and I thank God for smart people.
Why is there no mention of the blood thinning tablets such as apixaban, pradaxa, or other similar tablets which are the preferred method for thinning blood. These do not require the continuous checks demanded when warfarin is still selected. An explanai
Thank you for the video Dr. I have a much better understanding of what is done. God Bless
Got this on Thursday pretty scared but excited at the same time got it at harley street clinic
How did it go jodie?
Is apixiban okay instead of warfarin?
Excellent. Atrial fibrillation it's an authentic epidemic. Exist P cellulas at
pulmonary veins. and the multiple mini
reentrant activity occured by that.In patients without contraindications it's the most security procedure and the most benefits clinics achieve.
Ive had an ablation for tachycardia(fast heart beat) been in hospital twice with it 260 beats a minute since the ablation ive not had it once totally cured amazing people mind blowing technology.
When u had your operation
@@anamikamishra5840 5 years ago
How is it going now? I also have my operation very nervous for that
Any epiosde after that?
Can u please tell me that its a huge req
Biosense Webster catheters and Carto navigation system, great job!!!
How much do consultant cardiologists earn?
Still classic on warfarin whereas the used tools are most high tech.
I’m only 21 and have to get this surgery on Thursday. I’m scared af.
How did it go?? I'm getting mine in 2 days
maryxoxo9 sorry for the late response, it went really well, no pain at all afterwards. I had a little bit of anxiety when going home and thought that they hadn’t fixed it. But for the past couple weeks it’s completely fixed. No chest pain, no high heart rate. I do have some days where my chest feels weird but when I check my heart rate it’s always beating under 100 now. I think my anxiety is what makes me still worry that something is wrong. And I am still healing so I know it won’t feel completely normal until I’m all healed. I’m glad I did the surgery, I was so close to backing out. I don’t even need to take my heart pills anymore. Even though my heart is fixed now I still continue to be clean, I stopped smoking cigarettes, weed, cocaine, and even stopped drinking caffeine. Honestly I believe the drugs are what caused my heart issues and I’m never touching them again. I know the same isn’t for everyone, not saying weed or caffeine is bad, but it definitely made my symptoms worse. I used to beat as high as 180 bpm now I’m down in the 70s. I’m so grateful for my doctor. How was your surgery? Did it go okay?
@@allisonovo I'm so glad your procedure worked and you stopped drugs!! My surgery was rough and had complications, they severed a blood vessel which bled into my abdominal wall and I ended up being admitted for a night. I'm home now and in so much pain.. I hope my experience doesnt deter anyone from getting this surgery because it was a freak accident. My chest feels fine and I'm hopeful that the arrythmias will be cured.
I have to do this procedure in a week and I'm nervous wreck.
@@maryxoxo9 I hope you are ok now from what happened to you. I had this procedure done almost 6 months ago and going to get it done again in a few days. I hope this will be my last time to do it...
OK.....Now I'm Scared
I've had it done almost 6 months ago and going to get it done again in a few days. I hope this is the last time...
I have been in hospital twice with palpitations 220 beats a min first time for 3 hrs second time pulse went up to 186,had an echo came back completely normal,blood normal and chest x ray normal,im very frustrated dont know when it will come on again and yet everything appears normal,a real nightmare.
MrHighgate123 i would get a second oppinion and see a specialist cardiologist. I jad very si.ilar symptoms and kept gettinf told ridiculous reasons. I ended up being diagnosed with wpw wolff parkinsons white syndrom. I had my ablation last friday :) its a pretty tricky syndrom to pick up. They have taken my ecgs at hospitals to train new staff as not everyone can pick it up on an ecg
MrHighgate123 my highest heart rate recorded was 250. Scary feeling definitely!
i have had atrial fibrillation for the past 30 years. i have taken verapamil off and on over the years. i am presently taking it and it does an excellent job of controlling my heart rate and keeping my blood pressure normal. but my doctor, with my approval, has scheduled a catheter ablation in 3 weeks without ever explaining the procedure to me. i know, stupid me. but now that i have researched it online, i see no reason why i should exchange verapamil for wulferin, not to mention letting a total stranger burn the inside of my heart. these doctors are all about making money and ripping off insurance companies, but i am going to cancel that operation and stick with my verapamil.
+river rat I don't know if you ever had an ablation done. I noticed you posted this a year ago. My step sister had this done about 20 years ago and she has had no problem since. She was glad she did it. She had Wolf White Parkinson Syndrome I think? Her heartbeat would run up to 240 bpm. I have PVC's and possibly looking at having it done. I'm leery of it just like you but I don't like the idea of keeping up with daily medicines. Good luck to you. I hope all goes well.
Procedure is useless !!!
