Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling discomfort in my heart. Although I take medication regularly to control it, the effect is not obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. Can I tolerate cryoballoon radiofrequency ablation?Doctor's answer:
Cryoablation radiofrequency ablation is relatively effective in treating atrial fibrillation, and it is generally tolerable for the elderly. This requires follow-up visits and careful examination and treatment at a reputable, top-tier hospital. It is advisable not to seek treatment at private clinics. Atrial fibrillation is related to myocardial ischemia and arrhythmia, and it can easily lead to symptoms such as palpitations and chest tightness. Once a definitive diagnosis is made, treatment and lifestyle adjustments can be implemented. Additionally, it is important to follow a low-fat, low-sodium diet and avoid smoking and drinking beer. Regular follow-up visits should be scheduled to monitor recovery progress.
