Efficacy of Catheter Ablation Using the Electroanatomical System without the Use of Fluoroscopy in Patients with Ventricular Extrasystolic Beats

Background: Catheter ablation (CA) has become safe and efficient for the treatment of patients with ventricular extrasystolic beats (VEBs). The three-dimensional electroanatomic mapping (EAM) system allows the elimination of fluoroscopy time during CA procedures. Non-fluoroscopy CA is a challenging...

description Background: Catheter ablation (CA) has become safe and efficient for the treatment of patients with ventricular extrasystolic beats (VEBs). The three-dimensional electroanatomic mapping (EAM) system allows the elimination of fluoroscopy time during CA procedures. Non-fluoroscopy CA is a challenging procedure requiring intimate knowledge of cardiac anatomy in patients with VEBs. The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the non-fluoroscopy CA using the EAM system in patients with VEBs. Methods: Completely fluoroless CA of VEBs guided by EAM was performed in 86% (94 out of 109) of consecutive patients with VEBs. The remaining 15 patients underwent conventional fluoroscopy-guided CA. Demographic and clinical baseline characteristics, procedure parameters, and following complications were obtained from the medical records. Primary outcomes were the acute procedural success rate, the permanent success rate (6-month follow-up), complications, and procedure time. Results: There were no significant differences between groups regarding baseline characteristics. Acute procedural success was achieved in 85 patients (90%) in the non-fluoroscopy group and in 14 patients (93%) in the fluoroscopy group (ns). A long-term success rate was achieved in 82 patients (87%) in the non-fluoroscopy group and in 14 (82%) patients in the fluoroscopy group (ns). The median procedure time was 85 min in the non-fluoroscopy group and 120 min in the fluoroscopy group (p = 0.029). There was only one major complication in the non-fluoroscopy group (ns). Conclusions: Completely fluoroless CA of VEBs guided by EAM is a feasible, safe, and efficient procedure.
