Is radiofrequency ablation the same as ozone injection?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling uncomfortable in my heart. Although I take medication to control it, the effect isn't obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. Is radiofrequency ablation the same as ozone therapy?

Doctor's answer:

Radiofrequency ablation is not the same as ozone infusion. Radiofrequency ablation is an invasive treatment method. The specific surgical procedure involves inserting an electrode catheter through a vein or artery into a specific part of the heart cavity. Radiofrequency current is applied to cause coagulative necrosis of the local endocardium and subendocardial myocardium, surpassing the origin point of the abnormal conduction of rapid arrhythmia. It is the most effective method for treating tachycardia. Currently, there is no clinical diagnostic method for ozone infusion.
