Patient's question:
Uncle has had heart disease for a long time, and now his condition has become somewhat severe. He has repeatedly experienced atrial fibrillation. The doctor recommended performing cryoablation. I want to know the cost of cryoablation for atrial fibrillation?Doctor's answer:
The cost of catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation is around 70,000 yuan. The differences in cost depend on how the atrial fibrillation cryoballoon ablation is covered by local medical insurance and the purchase price of the equipment, among other factors. After the surgery, patients should quit smoking and avoid alcohol, as well as refrain from strenuous exercise. Since most patients take anticoagulant medication after the surgery, it is important to be cautious when taking certain cough or cold medications, as they may increase the risk of bleeding.
