Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the additional use of non-fluoroscopic imaging modalities can decrease the use of radiation exposure during standard ablation procedures for supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) in children.

Conditions

  • Supraventricular Tachycardia

Interventions

DEVICE

Intracardiac echocardiography and 3D navigational system

Patients assigned to the intervention group will receive both intracardiac echocardiography as well as a 3D navigational system in addition to fluoroscopy during their ablation procedure.
