Résumé

Slow pathway (SP) ablation, in the context of atrioventricular node reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) treatment could result in either complete elimination or only modification of the SP with ambiguity regarding associated benefits. Three-dimensional electroanatomical mapping (3D-EAM) may be used adjunctively aiming to complete SP elimination. Our purpose was to compare a 3D-EAM-based strategy targeting SP elimination to the conventional fluoroscopic approach with respect to clinical outcomes. One hundred and two consecutive AVNRT patients (36 males, mean age 53.2 ± 13.7 years) underwent in two successive periods a conventional fluoroscopic ablation approach ( Several procedural parameters improved with 3D-EAM use, including fluoroscopy time (2.4 ± 4.7 min vs. 13 ± 4.5 min), dose-area product (1061 ± 3122 μGy × m The present study showed that an EAM-based SP elimination strategy is not only feasible and safe but it is also accompanied by improved clinical outcomes in the setting of AVNRT ablation.

Background UNASSIGNED
Slow pathway (SP) ablation, in the context of atrioventricular node reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) treatment could result in either complete elimination or only modification of the SP with ambiguity regarding associated benefits. Three-dimensional electroanatomical mapping (3D-EAM) may be used adjunctively aiming to complete SP elimination. Our purpose was to compare a 3D-EAM-based strategy targeting SP elimination to the conventional fluoroscopic approach with respect to clinical outcomes.
Methods UNASSIGNED
One hundred and two consecutive AVNRT patients (36 males, mean age 53.2 ± 13.7 years) underwent in two successive periods a conventional fluoroscopic ablation approach (
Results UNASSIGNED
Several procedural parameters improved with 3D-EAM use, including fluoroscopy time (2.4 ± 4.7 min vs. 13 ± 4.5 min), dose-area product (1061 ± 3122 μGy × m
Conclusions UNASSIGNED
The present study showed that an EAM-based SP elimination strategy is not only feasible and safe but it is also accompanied by improved clinical outcomes in the setting of AVNRT ablation.
