Dmitry Lebedev continues: Cryoablation methods make it possible to reduce operation time and to lessen the risk of complications. Besides, the use of such methods will make it possible to increase the number of patients, who need methods which could be helpful in doing away with the arrhythmia they suffer from. Cryotechnology as a method to fight against heart arrhythmia emerged in the world only some time ago. And now thanks to specialists from St. Petersburg such methods will be actively used in Russia and will become an alternative to the treatment with the help of expensive anti-arrhythmic medicines, which is many-year practice today.
