摘要
目的:射频(RF)导管消融(CA)是心房颤动(AF)的主要治疗方法。带有接触力(CF)传感技术的射频导管和电解剖定位系统能够实时评估导管尖端组织界面CF,促进个性化和精确的CA。本研究检查了使用CARTO™3系统的THERMOCOOL™ST/ THERMOCOOL™STSF导管与EnSite™系统的TactiCath™导管治疗的AF患者的住院再入院率。材料和方法:从Premier Healthcare数据库中确定2019年7月1日至2021年11月30日期间接受房颤CA治疗的患者,并根据使用THERMOCOOL ST/STSF或TactiCath™进行分组。研究结果为ca后91-365天的全因、心血管(CV)和af相关住院患者再入院。倾向评分的治疗加权逆概率平衡了基线患者、合并症和医院特征。加权广义估计方程(GEE)模型检查了再入院结果的差异。结果:共有15,518例患者符合纳入标准(THERMOCOOL ST/STSF, n = 13,001;TactiCath™,n = 2517)。加权后,患者的特征基本平衡。接受THERMOCOOL ST/STSF + CARTO 3治疗的患者全因住院再入院的可能性降低20% (7.8 vs 9.3%,卡方p = 0.041;优势比[OR]: 0.80, 95%可信区间[CI]: 0.66-0.96, GEE p = 0.019),与TactiCath™+ Ensite治疗组相比,ca后91-365天cv相关住院再入院的可能性降低21% (5.2 vs 6.2%,卡方p = 0.133, OR: 0.79, 95% CI: 0.62-0.99, GEE p = 0.043)。af相关的再入院没有显著差异。结论:与TactiCath™+ Ensite治疗相比,接受THERMOCOOL ST/STSF + CARTO 3治疗的房颤CA患者的全因和心血管相关住院再入院风险显著降低。
Hospital readmissions following catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation with THERMOCOOL™ STSF/ THERMOCOOL™ ST catheter with CARTO™ 3 system versus TactiCath™ catheter with EnSite™ system.
Aim: Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation (CA) is a mainstay treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF). RF catheters with contact force (CF) sensing technology and electroanatomical mapping systems enable real-time assessment of catheter tip-tissue interface CF, facilitating individualized and precise CA. This study examined inpatient hospital readmissions in patients with AF treated with THERMOCOOL™ ST/ THERMOCOOL™ STSF catheter with the CARTO™ 3 System versus TactiCath™ catheter with the EnSite™ System. Materials&methods: Patients undergoing CA for AF between 1 July 2019 to 30 November 2021 were identified from the Premier Healthcare Database and grouped based on use of THERMOCOOL ST/STSF or TactiCath™. Study outcomes were all-cause, cardiovascular (CV)-, and AF-related inpatient readmission at 91-365-day post-CA. Inverse probability of treatment weighting of propensity scores balanced baseline patient, comorbidity and hospital characteristics. A weighted generalized estimating equation (GEE) model examined differences in readmission outcomes. Results: A total of 15,518 patients met inclusion criteria (THERMOCOOL ST/STSF, n = 13,001; TactiCath™, n = 2517). Patient characteristics were generally well-balanced after weighting. Patients treated with THERMOCOOL ST/STSF + CARTO 3 had a 20% lower likelihood of all-cause inpatient readmissions (7.8 vs 9.3%, chi-square p = 0.041; odds ratio [OR]: 0.80, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.66-0.96, GEE p = 0.019) and a 21% lower likelihood of CV-related inpatient readmission (5.2 vs 6.2%, chi-square p = 0.133, OR: 0.79, 95% CI: 0.62-0.99, GEE p = 0.043) in 91-365-days post-CA versus those treated with TactiCath™ + Ensite. No significant differences were observed for AF-related readmissions. Conclusion: Patients undergoing CA for AF treated with THERMOCOOL ST/STSF + CARTO 3 had a significantly lower risk of all-cause and CV-related inpatient hospital readmission versus those treated with TactiCath™ + Ensite.
