Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulsed-field ablation (PFA) is a nonthermal energy source for ablation of cardiac arrhythmias. This study investigated the prospective outcomes of a novel PFA generator in conjunction with a commercially available, contact force-sensing, focal ablation catheter. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility, safety, and lesion characteristics of point-by-point PFA in consecutive patients undergoing repeat ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF). METHODS The study involved reisolation of pulmonary veins (PVs) with electrical reconnection and the creation of an anterior line (AL) in patients with anterior substrate or durable pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). RESULTS In 24 patients (46% female; mean age 67 ± 10 years; 67% persistent AF), successful reisolation of 27 of 27 reconnected PVs (100%) was performed. In 19 patients, AL ablation was performed, with bidirectional block in 16 (84%), median ablation time 26 [21, 33] minutes, and first-pass bidirectional block in 13 patients (68%). Acute AL reconduction occurred in 8 of 19 patients (42%). Among these 8 patients, a subsequent sustained block of the AL was achieved in 5 (63%). Ultra-high-density electroanatomic mapping revealed homogeneous but relatively large low-voltage areas in the ablated regions. Median procedural, left atrial dwell, and fluoroscopy times were 100 [90, 109] minutes, 83 [75, 98] minutes, and 10 [8, 13] minutes, respectively. No major or minor complications occurred. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated feasibility, acute efficacy, and safety of point-by-point PFA for repeat PVI and AL ablation. Further studies are warranted to assess the long-term durability and comparison with established ablation methods.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Catheter-ablation (CA) of consecutive left atrial tachycardias (LAT) can be challenging. Pulsed field ablation (PFA) yields a novel nonthermal CA technology for treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). There is no data regarding PFA of LAT. This study sought to investigate PFA of consecutive LAT following prior CA of AF. METHODS Consecutive patients with LAT underwent ultrahigh-density (UHDx) mapping. Subsequent to identification of the AT mechanism, PFA was performed at the assumed critical sites for LAT maintenance. Continuous ablation lines were performed if required and evaluated with pre- and post-PFA HDx-mapping. RESULTS Fifteen patients (age 70 ± 10, male 73%) who underwent 3.6 ± 2 prior AF-CA procedures were included. The total mean procedure and fluoroscopy times were 141 ± 43 and 18 ± 10 min, respectively. All 19 of 19 (100%) LAT were successfully ablated with PFA. Two AT located at the right atria required RF-ablation. LAT were identified as localized reentry (n = 1) and macro-reentry LAT (n = 18) and targeted with PFA. All LAT terminated with PFA either to sinus rhythm (9/15) or a secondary AT (6/15 and subsequently to SR); 63% (12/19) terminated with the first PFA-application. All lines (13 roof, 11 anterior, 1 mitral) were blocked. LA-posterior-wall isolation (LAPWI) was successfully achieved when performed (10/10). AF/AT free survival was 80% (12/15) after 153 [88-207] days of follow-up. No procedure-related complications occurred. CONCLUSION PFA of consecutive LAT is feasible and safe. Successful creation of ablation lines and LAPWI can be achieved in a short time. PFA may offer the opportunity for effective ablation of atrial arrhythmias beyond AF.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:1033297. [PMID: 36505357 PMCID: PMC9731331 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.1033297] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The strategy of ablation index (AI)-guided high-power ablation seems to be a novel strategy for performing pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). An AI-guided high-power ablation strategy was used in this study to determine whether superior vena cava isolation (SVCI) after PVI was feasible and safe for patients with AF. Methods Data from 53 patients with AF were collected. Mapping and ablation of SVC were performed. The applied power was set at 45 W and the procedure was guided by AI. The SVC was divided into six segments in a cranial view. The RF applications and AI values in different segments were compared and analyzed. Using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, the diagnostic accuracy of AI value for predicting segment block was evaluated. Results Electrical SVCIs were successfully achieved in all patients. SVCI was performed by segment ablation in most cases, with RF applications in different segments. The mean AI value in non-lateral walls was higher than that of the lateral wall (392 ± 28 vs. 371 ± 37, P < 0.001). Acutely blocked sites had significantly larger AI values compared with no-blocked sites (390 ± 30 vs. 343 ± 23, P < 0.001). The optimal AI cut-off value for non-lateral segments was 379 (sensitivity: 75.9%, specificity: 100%) and for lateral segments was 345 (sensitivity: 82.3%, specificity: 100%). Conclusion The AI values were predictive of the acute conduction block of SVCI. With AI values of 345 and 379, respectively, conduction block was achieved in the lateral walls at a lower level than in the non-lateral walls.

Evolving Role of Catheter Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation: Early and Effective Rhythm Control. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11226871. [PMID: 36431348 PMCID: PMC9696051 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11226871] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2022] [Revised: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 11/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Catheter Ablation (CA) is an effective therapeutic option in treating atrial fibrillation (AF). Importantly, recent data show that CA as a rhythm control strategy not only significantly reduces AF burden, but also substantially improves clinical hard endpoints. Since AF is a progressive disease, the time of Diagnosis-to-Intervention appears crucial. Recent evidence shows that earlier rhythm control is associated with a lower risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients with early AF. Particularly, CA as an initial first line rhythm control strategy is associated with significant reduction of arrhythmia recurrence and rehospitalization in patients with paroxysmal AF. CA is shown to significantly lower the risk of progression from paroxysmal AF to persistent AF. When treating persistent AF, the overall clinical success after ablation remains unsatisfactory, however the ablation outcome in patients with "early" persistent AF appears better than those with "late" persistent AF. "Adjunctive" ablation on top of pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), e.g., ablation of atrial low voltage area, left atrial posterior wall, vein of Marshall, left atrial appendage, etc., may further reduce arrhythmia recurrence in selected patient group. New ablation concepts or new ablation technologies have been developing to optimize therapeutic effects or safety profile and may ultimately improve the clinical outcome.

Impact of High-Power and Very High-Power Short-Duration Radiofrequency Ablation on Procedure Characteristics and First-Pass Isolation During Pulmonary Vein Isolation. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:935705.

Abstract
IntroductionHigh-power short-duration (HPSD) radiofrequency ablation has been proposed to produce rapid and effective lesions for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). We aimed to evaluate the procedural characteristics and the first-pass isolation (FPI) rate of HPSD and very high-power short-duration (vHPSD) ablation compared to the low-power long-duration (LPLD) ablation technique.MethodsOne hundred fifty-six patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) were enrolled and assigned to LPLD, HPSD, or vHPSD PVI. The energy setting was 30, 50, and 90 W in the LPLD, HPSD, and vHPSD groups, respectively. In the vHPSD group, 90 W/4 s energy delivery was used in the QMODE+ setting. In the other groups, ablation index-guided applications were delivered with 30 W (LPLD) or 50 W (HPSD).ResultsBilateral PVI was achieved in all cases. Compared to the LPLD group, the HPSD and vHPSD groups had shorter procedure time [85 (75–101) min, 79 (65–91) min, and 70 (53–83) min], left atrial dwelling time [61 (55–70) min, 53 (41–56) min, and 45 (34–52) min], total RF time [1,567 (1,366–1,761) s, 1,398 (1,021–1,711) s, and 336 (247–386) s], but higher bilateral FPI rate (57, 78, and 80%) (all p-values < 0.01). The use of HPSD (OR = 2.72, 95% CI 1.15–6.44, p = 0.023) and vHPSD (OR = 2.90, 95% CI 1.24–6.44, p = 0.014) ablation techniques were associated with a higher probability of bilateral FPI. The 9-month AF-recurrence rate was lower in case of HPSD and vHPSD compared to LPLD ablation (10, 8, and 36%, p = 0.0001). Moreover, the presence of FPI was associated with a lower AF-recurrence rate at 9-month (OR = 0.09, 95% CI 0.04–0.24, p = 0.0001).ConclusionOur prospective, observational cohort study showed that both HPSD and vHPSD RF ablation shortens procedure and RF time and results in a higher rate of FPI compared to LPLD ablation. Moreover, the use of HPSD and vHPSD ablation increased the acute and mid-term success rate. No safety concerns were raised for HPSD or vHPSD ablation in our study.

Optimal Ablation Settings Predicting Durable Scar Detected Using LGE-MRI after Modified Left Atrial Anterior Line Ablation. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11030830. [PMID: 35160281 PMCID: PMC8837068 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11030830] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2021] [Revised: 01/25/2022] [Accepted: 02/02/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: The modified anterior line (MAL) has been described as an alternative to the mitral isthmus line. Despite better ablation results, achieving a bidirectional line block can be challenging. We aimed to investigate the ablation parameters that determine a persistent scar on late-gadolinium enhancement magnet resonance imaging (LGE-MRI) as a surrogate parameter for successful ablation 3 months after MAL ablation. (2) Methods: Twenty-four consecutive patients who underwent a MAL ablation have been included. The indication for MAL was perimitral flutter (n = 5) or substrate ablation in the diffuse anterior left atrial (LA) low-voltage area in persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) (n = 19). The MAL was divided into three segments: segment 1 (S1) from mitral annulus to height of lower region of left atrial appendage (LAA) antrum; segment 2 (S2) height of lower region of LAA antrum to end of upper LAA antrum; segment 3 (S3) from end of upper LAA antrum to left superior pulmonary vein. Ablation was performed using a contact force irrigated catheter with a power of 40 Watt and guided by automated lesion tagging and the Ablation Index (AI). The AI target was left to the operator’s choice. An inter-lesion distance of ≤6 mm was recommended. The bidirectional block was systematically evaluated using stimulation maneuvers at the end of procedure. All patients underwent LGE-MRI imaging at 3 months, regardless of symptoms, to identify myocardial lesions (scars). (3) Results: Bidirectional MAL block was achieved in all patients. LGE-MRI imaging revealed scarring in 45 of 72 (63%) segments. In all three segments of MAL, ablation time and AI were significantly higher in scarred areas compared with non-scar areas. The mean AI value to detect a durable scar was 514.2 in S1, 486.7 in S2 and 485.9 in S3. The mean ablation time to detect a scar was 20.4 s in S1, 22.1 s in S2 and 20.2 s in S3. Mean contact force and impedance drop were not significantly different between scar and non-scar areas. (4) Conclusions: Targeting optimal AI values is crucial to determine persistent left atrial scars on an LGE-MRI scan 3 months after ablation. AI guided linear left atrial ablation seems to be effective in producing durable lesions.

Esophageal temperature during atrial fibrillation ablation poorly predicts esophageal injury: An observational study. Heart Rhythm O2 2022; 2:570-577.

Abstract
Background Esophageal injury (EI) remains a concern when performing pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) using the high-power short-duration (HPSD) technique. Objective We aim to indicate that high esophageal temperature during HPSD PVI does not correlate with positive esophageal endoscopy (EGD) findings. Methods A retrospective observational study was performed on 43 patients undergoing PVI using HPSD (50 W for 6–7 seconds per lesion) at Tulane Medical Center from July 2020 to January 2021. Esophageal temperature was monitored throughout the procedure using a temperature probe and patients underwent EGD the following day. Small ulcers, nonbleeding erosions, erythema, and/or esophagitis were considered positive EGD findings. Results Mean age was 64.9 years; 46.5% of the patients were female. Eleven patients had positive EGD findings (group 1) and 32 patients had normal EGD (group 2). There was no statistical difference in mean esophageal peak temperature between group 1 and group 2 (43.9°C ± 2.9°C and 42.5°C ± 2.3°C, respectively, P = .17). There was no association between positive EGD results and esophageal temperature during PVI. Mean baseline esophageal temperature was similar in both groups (36.1°C, P = .78). Average contact force (P = .53), ablation time (P = .67), age (P = .3096), sex (P = .4), body mass index (P = .14), and other comorbidities did not correlate with positive endoscopy results. We found positive correlation between the distance of the left atrium (LA) to esophagus and positive EGD (P = .0001). Conclusion EI during HPSD PVI does not correlate to esophageal temperature changes during ablation. However, esophageal injury does correlate to a shorter proximity of the esophagus to the LA.
