An improved window of interest for electroanatomical mapping of atrial tachycardia.

Project description:PurposeDiagnosis of atrial tachycardia (AT) with 3D mapping system remains challenging due to fibrosis or previous ablation. This study aims to evaluate a new electroanatomical mapping annotation setting using a window of interest adjusted at the end of the P wave (WOIp wave) to identify the AT mechanism more accurately.MethodsTwenty patients with successful ablation of left AT using navigation system CARTO3 were evaluated. Two maps for each patient were generated offline using either conventional settings of WOI (WOIconv.) or WOIp wave. Three investigators from two centres analysed the maps blindly.ResultsMechanisms of AT were macroreentrant in 14/20 patients (70%) and focal in 6/20 (30%). WOIp wave resulted in a significant increase in the percentage of correct identification of the mechanism based on mapping alone (93.3 ± 13.7% vs 58.3 ± 33.9%; p = 0.0003) compared with WOIconv.. Diagnoses based on mapping were arrived at faster (27.8 ± 16.4 s vs 38.97 ± 13.64 s, respectively; p = 0.0231) and with a greater confidence in the diagnosis (confidence index 2.57 ± 0.45 vs 2.12 ± 0.45, respectively; p = 0.0024). With perimitral re-entry specifically "early meets late" was closer to the anatomical region of the mitral isthmus (15.9 ± 20.9 mm vs 48.77 ± 23.23 mm, respectively; p = 0.0028).ConclusionsThis study found that electroanatomical mapping acquisition with a window of interest set at the end of the P wave improves the ability to diagnose the arrhythmia mechanism based on the initial map. It is particularly beneficial in identifying area of interest for ablation in perimitral AT.

Open window mapping for redo accessory pathway ablation in Ebstein anomaly.

Project description:Accessory pathway ablation in Ebstein anomaly can be significantly more challenging than in structurally normal hearts. An alternative to the conventional approach to mapping APs is to detect points with a high-density mapping catheter based on an automated detection algorithm using open window mapping. It detects the sharpest signal at each point with high-density mapping rather than relying on the origin of the local electrogram to localize the pathway and determine a site for successful ablation. We herein report the first case in literature of a redo-accessory pathway ablation in Ebstein anomaly using this technique.

Open Window Mapping of Accessory Pathways: A Literature Review and Practical Guide.

Project description:Catheter ablation is the treatment of choice for patients with symptomatic accessory pathways (APs) causing recurrent atrioventricular reciprocating tachycardia or in situations where APs conduct rapidly, posing a risk of sudden cardiac death. Conventional AP mapping relies on point-by-point assessment of local electrograms looking closely for pathway electrograms or early atrial or ventricular electrograms, which may be challenging and time consuming. Recently, open window mapping (OWM) using 3D navigational systems has emerged as a novel technique to help localise and ablate APs. OWM has significant advantages over conventional point-by-point mapping techniques. The purpose of this review is to summarise the currently available literature on the OWM technique and to highlight the technical aspects and mapping considerations for OWM, including specific cases demonstrating its utility.

Open surgical ablation of ventricular tachycardia: Utility and feasibility of contemporary mapping and ablation tools.

Project description:BackgroundVentricular tachycardia (VT) catheter ablation success may be limited when transcutaneous epicardial access is contraindicated. Surgical ablation (SurgAbl) is an option, but ablation guidance is limited without simultaneously acquired electrophysiological data.ObjectiveWe describe our SurgAbl experience utilizing contemporary electroanatomic mapping (EAM) among patients with refractory VT storm.MethodsConsecutive patients with recurrent VT despite antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) and prior ablation, for whom percutaneous epicardial access was contraindicated, underwent open SurgAbl using intraoperative EAM guidance.ResultsEight patients were included, among whom mean age was 63 ± 5 years, all were male, mean left ventricular ejection fraction was 39% ± 12%, and 2 (25%) had ischemic cardiomyopathy. Reasons for surgical epicardial access included dense adhesions owing to prior cardiac surgery, hemopericardium, or pericarditis (n = 6); or planned left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation at time of SurgAbl (n = 2). Cryoablation guided by real-time EAM was performed in all. Goals of clinical VT noninducibility or core isolation were achieved in 100%. VT burden was significantly reduced, from median 15 to 0 events in the month pre- and post-SurgAbl (P = .01). One patient underwent orthotopic heart transplantation for recurrent VT storm 2 weeks post-SurgAbl. Over mean follow-up of 3.4 ± 1.7 years, VT storm-free survival was achieved in 6 (75%); all continued AADs, although at lower dose.ConclusionSurgical mapping and ablation of refractory VT with use of contemporary EAM is feasible and effective, particularly among patients with contraindication to percutaneous epicardial access or with another indication for cardiac surgery.
