Atrial Fibrillation=Cold Hearted

Well, not exactly. But for those who have irregular heartbeats due to heart tissue abnormalities therefore making the electrical impulses contract the heart ineffectively, heat in the form of radio waves solves the problem. The procedure is called catheter ablation and has been used for other heart problems.

This is good news for those who are on heart meds that cause so many other problems: fatigue, blood pressure irregularities, congestion, etc.
