Esophageal pressure monitoring for airway management during catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation

Esophageal pressure monitoring for airway management during catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation

Background: Respiratory management during catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) is important for the efficacy and safety of the procedure. Obstructive apnea due to an upper airway obstruction might cause serious complications including air embolisms and cardiac tamponade. However, real time...
