Use of Adenosine to Release an Entrapped Catheter During Ablation of Premature Ventricular Complexes
Catheter entrapment is a rare complication during catheter ablation that may require surgical intervention. Use of adenosine to prolong diastole can be a safe and effective strategy to free the catheter and avoid significant morbidity. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
