Event Description

This complaint is from a literature source.The following literature cite has been reviewed: schade a, costello-boerrigter l, deneke t, steinborn f, chapran m, vathie k, milisavljevic n, franz m, surber r, assani m, hamo h, khshfeh m, lauten a, mattea v.Oesophageal safety in voltage-guided atrial fibrillation ablation using ablation index or contact force only: a prospective comparison.Europace.2022 dec 9;24(12):1909-1916.Doi: 10.1093/europace/euac103.Pmid: 35851917.Abstract:aims: left atrial ablation using radiofrequency (rf) is associated with endoscopically detected thermal oesophageal lesions (edels).The aim of this study was to compare edel occurrence after conventional contact force-guided (cfg) rf ablation vs.An ablation index-guided (aig) approach in clinical routine of voltage-guided ablation (vga).Predictors of edel were also assessed.Methods and results: this study compared cfg (n = 100) with aig (n = 100) in consecutive atrial fibrillation ablation procedures, in which both pulmonary vein isolation and vga were performed.In the aig group, ai targets were =500 anteriorly and =350-400 posteriorly.Upper endoscopy was performed after ablation.The cfg and aig groups had comparable baseline characteristics.The edel occurred in 6 and 5% (p = 0.86) in the cfg and aig groups, respectively.Category 2 lesions occurred in 4 and 2% (p = 0.68), respectively.All edel healed under proton pump inhibitor therapy.The ai > 520 was the only predictor of edel [odds ratio (or) 3.84; p = 0.039].The more extensive category 2 lesions were predicted by: ai max > 520 during posterior ablation (or 7.05; p = 0.042), application of posterior or roof lines (or 5.19; p = 0.039), existence of cardiomyopathy (or 4.93; p = 0.047), and cha2ds2-vasc score (or 1.71; p = 0.044).The only category 2 lesion with ai max < 520 (467) occurred in a patient with low body mass index.Conclusions: both methods were comparable with respect to clinical complications and edel.In consideration of previous reconnection data and our study results regarding oesophageal safety, optimal ai target range might be between 400 and 450.Lot, model and catalog number are not available, but the suspected biosense webster device possibly associated with reported adverse events: thermocool smarttouch sf.Other biosense webster devices that were also used in this study: carto 3 visitag (visitag¿ parameters were tag size of 3 mm, location stability of 2.5, minimum time of 3 s, force over time of 25%, minimum force of 3 g.Visitag colouring varied continuously between 0 and 30 s.Respiratory gating was used for visitag application), lasso mapping catheter.Non-biosense webster devices that were also used in this study: n/a.Adverse event(s) and provided interventions: qty 3 transient ischemic attacks (intervention not discussed), qty 3 pseudoaneurysms requiring surgical intervention, qty 1 pericardial effusion (intervention not discussed), and qty 1 sinus arrest requiring pacemaker implantation.
