BACKGROUND: Long-term results after circumferential pulmonary vein isolation (CPVI) for the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) using a robotic navigation system (RNS) have not yet been reported.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate long-term results of patients with PAF after CPVI using RNS.
METHODS: In this study, 200 patients (n = 151 (75.5%) male; median age 62.2 (54.7-67.7) years) with PAF were evaluated. In 100 patients, RNS (RN-group) was used for CPVI and compared to 100 manually ablated control patients (MN-group). Radiofrequency was used in conjunction with 3D electroanatomic mapping. Power was limited to 30 watts (W) at the posterior left atrial (LA) wall in the first 49 RNS patients (RN-group-a). After esophageal perforation occurred in one RN-group-a patient, maximum power was reduced to 20 W for the subsequent 51 patients (RN-group-b).
RESULTS: After a median follow-up of 2 years, single (77/100 vs 77/100, p = 0.89) and multiple (90/100 vs 93/100, p = 0.29) procedure success rates were comparable between RN-group and MN-group. Single procedure success rate was significantly lower in RN-group-a as compared to RN-group-b (65.3 vs 88.2%, p = 0.047). In RN-group-a patients, procedural times [200 (170-230) vs 152 (132-200) minutes, p < 0.01] and fluoroscopy times [16.6 (12.9-21.6) minutes vs 13.7 (9.5-19) minutes, p = 0.043] were significantly longer compared to RN-group-b patients.
CONCLUSION: Long-term success rate after CPVI using RNS was comparable to manual ablation. Despite a lower power limit of 20 W at the posterior LA wall, single procedure success rate was higher in RN-group-b as compared to RN-group-a. Procedure time and fluoroscopy time decreased, whilst success rate increased with increasing experience in the RN-group.
