Cardiac ablation is used to treat irregular heartbeats (e.g. atrial fibrillation) which cannot or cannot easily be treated with drugs. In the procedure, a catheter is inserted into the heart through a blood vessel under X-ray control and creates scarring to block certain electrical signals. The Swiss Atlas of Healthcare contains analyses on the frequency of cardiac ablation procedures overall and separate analyses on inpatient and outpatient settings.
