What’s wrong with panic after radiofrequency ablation?

Panic after radiofrequency ablation may be related to emotional stress and cardiomyocyte damage, but recurrence of arrhythmia cannot be ruled out. 1. Panic after radiofrequency ablation can be produced when there is excessive emotional tension, relaxation and sleep are needed, and the symptoms may improve. 2. In the process of radiofrequency ablation, its thermal effect can not only make the lesion tissue necrosis, but also make the surrounding normal small myocardial damage, causing the body to panic and other discomfort. 3. When radiofrequency ablation is applied to treat arrhythmia in the heart, the possibility of recurrence of arrhythmia in some patients cannot be excluded. If patients have panic attacks after the procedure, ECG should be performed in time to determine whether there is recurrence of arrhythmia or induced arrhythmia. If patients have panic attacks after radiofrequency ablation, it is recommended that they go to the hospital immediately and have a 24-hour electrocardiogram (ECG) to determine the cause of the panic attack.
