Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Consistent data from several studies have shown that catheter ablation of frequent premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) results in substantial improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular diastolic function, and left atrial volume and mechanics. However, the effects of catheter ablation of PVCs on atrial electromechanical properties have not been documented yet.
AIMS: In the present study, we investigated the short-term effects of radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) of outflow tract PVCs on atrial electromechanical delay (EMD).
METHODS: A total of 71 subjects with idiopathic outflow tract PVCs who underwent RFCA were included. Interatrial and intra-atrial EMDs were measured by tissue Doppler imaging before and 3 months after catheter ablation.
RESULTS: The study population was divided into normal ejection fraction (EF) and low-EF subgroups according to their LVEF. In all study groups, substantial improvement was found in lateral electromechanical coupling time (PA), septal PA, right ventricular PA, interatrial EMD, left-sided intra-atrial EMD, and right-sided intra-atrial EMD. No treatment heterogeneity was observed when comparing low-EF and normal-EF subgroups with respect to atrial EMDs (interatrial EMD, interaction p = .29; left-sided intra-atrial EMD, interaction p = .13; right-sided intra-atrial EMD, interaction p = .88).
CONCLUSION: RFCA of outflow tract PVC has a favorable early effect on intra- and inter-atrial EMDs irrespective of preprocedural LVEF.
