Esophageal temperature monitoring during radiofrequency catheter ablation: experimental study based on an agar phantom model.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Atrial fibrillation (AF) causes marked risk for patients, while silent fibrillation may remain unnoticed if not suspected and screened. Development of comfortable yet accurate beat-to-beat heart rate (HR) monitoring with good AF detection sensitivity would facilitate screening and improve treatment. The purpo...
