A member asked:
Are there restrictions after ablation for svt? can i take my plane flight in 6 weeks?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
You can fly: In general, there are few restrictions after an uncomplicated svt ablation. Your physician may ask you to avoid putting excess strain on the groin(s) for a few days to ensure the blood vessels used for catheter access heal adequately. You should be back to a normal routine far earlier than 6 weeks.

Yes: After 6 weeks, if you are asymptomatic, you can do anything you could otherwise do. Have a great trip!
