Abstract

Direct-current ablation has been reinvestigated in animal models with considerably good outcomes and safety margins. Its modified version using biphasic energy lowers the current density further, minimizing its complications. We report a first-in-human ablation of ventricular tachycardia using biphasic direct current with short-term success and no procedural complications. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.) [Display omitted] Direct-current ablation has been reinvestigated in animal models with considerably good outcomes and safety margins. Its modified version using biphasic…
