Abstract:
Objective: To evaluate the effect of catheter ablation (CA) by endpoint of left atrium (AF)- pulmonary vein (PV) with bi-directional electrical isolation in treating the patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) with remote electro-cardio graphic monitoring.
Methods: A total of 82 AF patients received radio frequency catheter ablation (RFCA) in our hospital and 76 PAF patients were observed. Based on circumferential pulmonary vein isolation (CPVI) judgment, the PAF patients were divided into 2 groups: Bi-directional block (BDB) group,n=20 and Entrance block (EB) group,n=56. The post-operative rhythm was followed-up by remote electro-cardio graphic monitoring and the clinical efifcacy of CA was prospectively observed.
Results:①All 76 patients finished CA, 1 patient died in EB group at 4 days after operation for pulmonary embolism, the rest 75 patients were followed-up for (31±19) months. The overall success rates of single ablation procedure at 3 months and 6 months after operation were 85.33% and 77.33%; in BDB group were 95.00% and 85.00%, in EB group were 81.82% and 74.55% respectively, the result was similar between 2 groups,P>0.05.②The overall occurrence rates of arrhythmia at 1 week and 3 months after operation were 35.53% and 17.33%; in BDB group were 15.00% and 5.00%, in EB group were 42.86% and 21.82% respectively, the differences between 2 groups were at P=0.049 andP>0.05.③Remote electro-cardio graphic monitoring recorded the patients with asymptomatic atrial arrhythmia at 1 week and 3 months after operation were at 22.22% and 23.08% respectively.
Conclusion:①Compared with EB group, BDB group had obviously lower occurrence rate of arrhythmia at short term after CA.②The overall success rate of single ablation procedure was similar between 2 groups which might be because less patients were studied.③Remote electro-cardio graphic monitoring has certain advantage for evaluating the occurrence of atrial arrhythmia after operation.
