Go to the KP Photo Bank. Nizhny Novgorod doctors applied an innovative method for treating arrhythmia—balloon cryoablation with liquid nitrogen. This was reported by the editor-in-chief of "Stationary Press" Aleksei Nikonov on his Telegram channel. This technology allows the removal of areas of the heart that cause atrial fibrillation— a dangerous rhythm disorder that can last up to a week and threaten the patient's life. Through a puncture in the femoral vein, a cryoballoon is inserted into the heart. It is inflated to block blood flow between the left atrium and the pulmonary vein. The balloon is filled with liquid nitrogen for 4 minutes. Under the influence of extreme cold, the tissue scars and stops conducting "dangerous" impulses. The patient feels the effect just 20 minutes after the procedure. Ekaterina MARKELOVA
