BACKGROUND: Exposure to radiation during catheter ablation procedures poses a risk to the heath of both the patient and electrophysiology laboratory staff. Recently, the feasibility and effectiveness of zero-fluoroscopy ablation have been reported. However, studies on the outcomes of zero-fluoroscopy ablation in Japan remain limited. This study investigated the outcomes of zero-fluoroscopy ablation for cardiac arrhythmias at a Japanese institute.
METHODS AND RESULTS: We present a retrospective analysis of the safety, efficacy, and feasibility data from 221 consecutive patients who underwent zero-fluoroscopy ablation. Of these patients, 181 had atrial fibrillation, 17 had paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, 13 had atrial tachycardia, 6 had ventricular tachycardia, and 4 had ventricular premature contractions. We performed zero-fluoroscopy ablation using three-dimensional electro-anatomical mapping systems and intracardiac echocardiography imaging. Ultrasound-guided sheath insertion was performed on all cases. Our experience includes exclusively endocardial cardiac ablations. The mean follow-up was 24 months. The recurrence rates were 25.4% for atrial fibrillation, 5.9% for paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, 15.4% for atrial tachycardia, 33.3% for ventricular tachycardia, and 25% for ventricular premature contraction. Complications occurred in two patients (0.9%), and there was no occurrence of death. A fluoroscopic guide was used in three cases for the confirmation of vascular access (one case) and for complications (two cases).
CONCLUSIONS: Zero-fluoroscopy ablation was routinely performed without compromising on safety and efficacy. This approach may eliminate the exposure to radiation for all individuals involved in this procedure.
