About Ablation Catheter
Cardiac arrhythmia is one of the leading causes of premature death and is characterized by the abrupt loss of heart function. Cardiac dysfunction results in the inhibition of blood flow to the brain and other vital organs. Arrhythmia is a condition resulting in abnormal heartbeat, which occurs due to changes in electrical impulses. The electrical impulses can either be too fast or too slow, resulting in sudden cardiac arrest. According to a 2013 report by the AHA, more than 450,000 people die annually in the US because of sudden cardiac arrest.
Catheter ablation is an endovascular procedure that is helpful in the treatment of irregular heartbeat. Ablation catheters use an energy source such as radiofrequency, which produces radio waves that generate heat. Ablation catheters reduce the risk of ventricular fibrillation and sudden cardiac arrest.
Technavio's analysts forecast the ablation catheters market in the US is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.23% over the period 2014-2019.
