  2. Radiofrequency ablation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiofrequency_ablation

    Radiofrequency ablation (RFA), also called fulguration, [1] is a medical procedure in which part of the electrical conduction system of the heart, tumor, sensory nerves or a dysfunctional tissue is ablated using the heat generated from medium frequency alternating current (in the range of 350–500 kHz).

  3. Renal sympathetic denervation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_Sympathetic_Denervation

    The Symplicity HTN-1, HTN-2 and HTN-3 trials have demonstrated acceptable safety profiles for catheter based renal denervation. Patients may experience pain during application of radiofrequency pulses and intraprocedural bradycardia requiring atropine has also been reported. [2]

  4. Targeted radiofrequency ablation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Targeted_radiofrequency...

    Targeted radiofrequency ablation (also written t-RFA) is a minimally invasive procedure to treat severe pain and discomfort caused from metastatic tumors in the vertebral body of the spine. This procedure uses radiofrequency energy to target and ablate a specific spinal tumor, causing it shrink and reduce the pressure on the surrounding nerves ...

  6. Catheter ablation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catheter_ablation

    Arrhythmia - the ablation procedure can result in a new rhythm disturbance in the heart. Patients may also experience a return of the arrhythmia after the procedure, requiring them to undergo further treatment. However, in general this procedure is considered a safe, effective, and minimally invasive method to treat arrhythmias.

  7. Occipital neuralgia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occipital_neuralgia

    Pulsed or thermal radiofrequency ablation (RFA) may be considered for longer-lasting relief after a local anesthetic blockade confirms the diagnosis. Thermal RFA aimed at destroying the nerve architecture can render long-term analgesia but also comes with the potential risks of hypesthesia, dysesthesia, anesthesia dolorosa, and painful neuroma ...

  8. Medical applications of radio frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_applications_of...

    Radio frequencies at non-ablation energy levels are commonly used as a part of aesthetic treatments that can tighten skin, reduce fat by lipolysis and also apoptosis, [4] or promote healing. [5] RF diathermy is a medical treatment that uses RF induced heat as a form of physical therapy and in surgical procedures. It is commonly used for muscle ...

  9. Stretta procedure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stretta_procedure

    Stretta is a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) that delivers radiofrequency energy in the form of electromagnetic waves through electrodes at the end of a catheter to the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) and the gastric cardia – the region of the stomach just below the LES.
