Pulsed-field ablation for atrial fibrillation without the use of fluoroscopy.
Introduction: Pulsed-field ablation (PFA) and fluoroless ablation (FA) are emerging techniques in contemporary in electrophysiology. With widespread use of 3D electroanatomic mapping systems and advanced intracardiac echo (ICE) imaging, fluoroless ablation has become more widely adopted. However, with the importance of tissue contact for lesion durability, initial PFA has been used with fluoroscopic guidance, but both ICE and electroanatomic mapping make fluoroless PFA feasible. The objective of this study is to demonstrate that PFA can be done safely and effectively without fluoroscopy.
Methods: At a single center, consecutive patients undergoing ablation with a pentaspline PFA catheter using a fluoroless approach are described. The standard 3D anatomic map settings were adjusted with changes in interior and exterior projection, respiratory compensation, and interpolation. In addition, projection map lesions were used to confirm adequate circumferential ablation lesions. ICE was used extensively for wire guidance and evaluation of contact with tissue.
Results: Beginning on March 15, 2024, 50 consecutive subjects (19 female/31 male) aged 68.0 (± 13.7) underwent PFA ablation. The average CHA2DS2-VA2Sc score was 3.0 (± 1.9). The average LVEF was 57.3% (± 10.0) and the average LA size was 3.9 cm (± 1.2). Projection lesions were placed with every application of PFA. An average of 41.7 (± 8.5) PFA applications were placed. In 100% (50/50) of subjects, acute isolation of the pulmonary veins was achieved. Eighteen subjects also underwent concomitant posterior wall isolation and in 100% of these subjects, posterior isolation was achieved. There were zero complications in this cohort. In 50/50 subjects (100%), fluoroscopy was not used. In comparison to the control cohort, the LA dwell time of the ablation catheter was similar (p = 0.34).
Conclusion: In comparison to the traditional PFA with fluoroscopy, this proof-of-concept study shows fluoroless PFA ablation can be performed safely and with similar acute success rates as with use of fluoroscopy.
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.
