The benefits of ablation using TactiFlex compared with TactiCath in an ex vivo model: a face-to-face experimental comparison study.
Background: TactiFlex is a next-generation catheter that is being used increasingly in ablation-treatment strategies. The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in ablation lesions when the ablation power, time, and perfusion flow are varied with TactiFlex and TactiCath catheters.
Methods: The TactiFlex and TactiCath catheters were contacted perpendicularly/obliquely/parallel to the swine myocardium at varying powers (30, 40, and 50 W), time points (10, 15, 20, 25, 30, and 40 s), and forces (5, 10, 15, 20, and 30 g); the depth, width, and area of each lesion were measured, and the number of steam pops that occurred was counted.
Results: A total of 672 (336 lesions for each catheter) radiofrequency (RF) energy applications were delivered and 648 lesions were analyzed, excluding steam pops. The surface area and volume increased significantly with an increasing contact force for the TactiCath. The TactiCath lesions were significantly deeper than those for TactiFlex in most groups with the same power and seconds. The surface area was significantly larger when the catheters were contacted obliquely/parallel to the myocardium than perpendicularly using TactiCath, whereas the difference was less significant in the case of TactiFlex. In a 10-g contact force ablation experiment, TactiFlex did not cause pops, but TactiCath caused pops in 9.8% of cases.
Conclusion: The TactiFlex lesions were shallower than those of TactiCath. However, TactiFlex catheters reduced the steam pops during RF applications. Those data should help clinicians understand the characteristics of the catheters and develop adequate strategies.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Interventional Cardiac Electrophysiology is an international publication devoted to fostering research in and development of interventional techniques and therapies for the management of cardiac arrhythmias. It is designed primarily to present original research studies and scholarly scientific reviews of basic and applied science and clinical research in this field. The Journal will adopt a multidisciplinary approach to link physical, experimental, and clinical sciences as applied to the development of and practice in interventional electrophysiology. The Journal will examine techniques ranging from molecular, chemical and pharmacologic therapies to device and ablation technology. Accordingly, original research in clinical, epidemiologic and basic science arenas will be considered for publication. Applied engineering or physical science studies pertaining to interventional electrophysiology will be encouraged. The Journal is committed to providing comprehensive and detailed treatment of major interventional therapies and innovative techniques in a structured and clinically relevant manner. It is directed at clinical practitioners and investigators in the rapidly growing field of interventional electrophysiology. The editorial staff and board reflect this bias and include noted international experts in this area with a wealth of expertise in basic and clinical investigation. Peer review of all submissions, conflict of interest guidelines and periodic editorial board review of all Journal policies have been established.
