| pubmed-article:19075482 | pubmed:abstractText | This study was designed to determine whether endocardial high-frequency stimulation at the pulmonary vein (PV) antrums can localize cardiac autonomic ganglionated plexi (GP) and whether ablation at these sites can evoke a vagal response and provide a long-term benefit after PV isolation (PVI) for atrial fibrillation (AF). Radiofrequency ablation of each PV antrum was performed in 21 patients with paroxysmal AF (n = 17) or persistent (n = 4) AF. In 8 patients with paroxysmal AF, a ring electrode catheter was placed at each PV antrum. High-frequency stimulation prolonged the R-R interval in 6 of 8 patients at the left superior (LS) PV, in 3 of 8 patients at the left inferior (LI) PV, in 3 of 8 patients at the right superior (RS) PV, and in 3 of 8 patients at the right inferior (RI) PV. A decrease in sinus rate > 20% was observed in 4 of 21 patients during LS PVI, in 2 of 21 patients during RS PVI, and in 1 of 2 patients during RI PVI. Atrioventricular block or a > 5 second pause was observed in 5 of 21 patients during LS PVI. AF recurred during the follow-up period in 5 of the 16 patients (31%) who had no atrioventricular block or > 5 second pause during PVI but did not recur in 5 patients in whom atrioventricular block or a > 5 second pause developed during PVI. GP can be identified by endocardial stimulation. The AF recurrence rate is decreased when a vagal response is achieved by radiofrequency ablation. | lld:pubmed |
