The first human experience of a contact force sensing catheter for epicardial ablation of ventricular tachycardia [PDF]

, 2014
Contact force (CF) is one of the major determinants for sufficient lesion formation. CF-guided procedures are associated with enhanced lesion formation and procedural success.We report our initial experience in epicardial ventricular tachycardia (VT ...

Non-fluoroscopic catheter ablation: A randomized trial

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2019
Background: Catheter ablation provides curative treatment for tachyarrhythmias. Fluoroscopy, the method used for this, presents several risks. The electroanatomical mapping (MEA) presents a three-dimensional image without using X-rays, and may be adjunct

Contemporary Management of Complex Ventricular Arrhythmias

Arrhythmia & Electrophysiology Review, 2022
Percutaneous catheter ablation is an effective and safe therapy that can eliminate ventricular tachycardia, reducing the risks of both recurrent arrhythmia and shock therapies from a defibrillator.

Insights into the mechanism of idiopathic left ventricular tachycardia: a case report and literature review [PDF]

, 2015
Left ventricular posterior fascicular tachycardia (LVPFT) is an idiopathic form of VT characterized by right bundle branch block morphology and left axis deviation. The mechanism of LPFVT is thought to be localized reentry close to the posterior fascicle.

Electroanatomic mapping of arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2001
We tested the hypothesis that spatial association of low-amplitude intracardiac electrograms can identify the presence, location and extent of dysplastic regions in arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD).Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia is a right ventricular (RV) cardiomyopathy characterized pathologically by fibrofatty ...

Catheter Ablation: Evolution and Efficiencies

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The present review includes a discussion the goals and pitfalls of efficiency in the medical profession, a historical perspective on the evolution of catheter ablation in the field of electrophysiology (EP), and the data regarding the relationship between efficiency and outcomes in the EP lab. Focus on efficacy is critical to maximize resource

Epicardial Electrical Activation During Atrial Fibrillation

JACC: Case Reports, 2019
High-definition mapping of atrial fibrillation is most commonly performed from the endocardial surface. This report describes an example of a case in which combined mapping of the endocardium and epicardium of the left atrium demonstrated electrical ...

Three-dimensional electroanatomical mapping to guide transseptal catheterization [PDF]

HeartRhythm Case Reports, 2018
Transseptal catheterization is generally a routine and common technique utilized as part of various cardiac electrophysiology procedures. But at times this can be met with specific challenges often times due to anatomical variations in certain patients, particularly those with cardiac anomalies.

Comparison of Integrated 3D Electroanatomic Mapping and Conventional Mapping Systems for Pentaspline Pulsed Field Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is an established therapy for atrial fibrillation (AF), yet optimal mapping strategies during pentaspline PFA remain uncertain. We compared procedural characteristics and material costs of an integrated 3D electroanatomic mapping (EAM) platform with conventional mapping systems. Methods and Results In a

Characterization of AV Nodal Left Inferior Extension by Use of High‐Density Mapping and Voltage‐Time Relationship

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
High resolution voltage LA map is shown with Ripple mapping during sinus rhythm prior to atrial fibrillation ablation (panel A‐D, top row Left Anterior Oblique view, bottom row Left Anterior Oblique Caudal view). Chamber activation is visualized by white Ripple bars, proceeding from the septum and septal roof (panel A), spreading clockwise and ...
