Purpose of Review

We performed this study and associated review to examine whether a one prognostic block is sufficient to proceed with radiofrequency ablation.

Recent Findings

To perform one or two prognostic blocks before performing radiofrequency ablation is a very controversial issue. The practice is inconsistent and insurance companies even do not follow same regulations.

Summary

We found in our research that majority of patients who receive a successful first prognostic block also receive a successful second prognostic block. We think one prognostic block can be sufficient to move forward with radiofrequency ablation.

一个预后障碍足以进行射频消融吗？单一中心体验。

审查目的

我们进行了这项研究，并进行了相关审查，以检查一个预后障碍是否足以进行射频消融。

最近的发现

在执行射频消融之前执行一个或两个预后块是一个非常有争议的问题。这种做法是不一致的，保险公司甚至没有遵循相同的规定。

概要

我们在研究中发现，大多数接受成功的第一预后性阻断的患者也都会接受成功的第二预后性阻断。我们认为一个预后障碍就足以实现射频消融。
