Utility of Simultaneous Biatrial Atrial Anti-Tachycardia Pacing for the Termination of Atrial Fibrillation during Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation
Background: Atrial anti-tachycardia pacing (A-ATP) of the right atrium (RA) has been shown to decrease the burden of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with dual-chamber pacemakers. The aim of this study is to identify the novel predictors of effective A-ATP for terminating AF in patients with AF...

description | Background: Atrial anti-tachycardia pacing (A-ATP) of the right atrium (RA) has been shown to decrease the burden of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with dual-chamber pacemakers. The aim of this study is to identify the novel predictors of effective A-ATP for terminating AF in patients with AF undergoing catheter ablation. Methods: This study included 41 consecutive patients undergoing a first ablation procedure for paroxysmal (PAF: n = 21) or persistent (PEF: n = 20) AF. We prospectively evaluated predictors of AF termination after A-ATP. The coefficient of variation (CoV = SD/mean × 100) of the dominant frequencies (DFs) was calculated to evaluate the variability in atrial activation. Results: AF was terminated by A-ATP in 29% of PAF and 5% of PEF patients. In these patients, simultaneous high-rate pacing from the RA and the coronary sinus (CS) terminated AF in 71% of patients, in whom the mean AF cycle length (CL) before A-ATP was longer (214 ± 23 vs. 177 ± 35 ms, p = 0.02) and became slower after A-ATP (234 ± 37 vs. 176 ± 32 ms, p < 0.01), compared to unsuccessful patients. The CoV of the DFs before A-ATP were lower in both RA (6.2 ± 2.0 vs. 15.3 ± 7.9, p = 0.02) and CS (11.0 ± 7.9 vs. 24.3 ± 9.3, p < 0.01) in successful patients. Conclusions: Simultaneous biatrial A-ATP from the RA and CS could terminate AF in patients with PAF. The predictors for successful termination include longer AF CL and higher AF stability. |
