Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with idiopathic right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) ventricular arrhythmias (VA) and factors related to the immediate success rate of radiofrequency ablation.
Methods:Patients diagnosed as idiopathic RVOT arrhythmia in Fuwai Hospital from February 2009 to January 2013 were retrospectively screened. Patients with structural heart disease or inherited arrhythmia were excluded. All patients underwent endocardial electrophysiological study and radiofrequency catheter ablation. Baseline clinical and operation records were collected and analyzed. Immediate success rate was defined as no inducible ventricular arrhythmia by isoprinosine and electrophysiological induction at the end of ablation. The origins of idiopathic RVOT were classified as septal, anterior, posterior, free wall site, epicardial and RVOT-aorta root site.
Results:A total of 468 patients were finally included, and the age was (40.4±13.3) years old and 60.5%(283/468) patients were female. Immediate radiofrequency success rate was 89.3%(418/468). Patients were divided into ablation success group (n=418) and ablation failure group (n=50). Percent of female patients and patients with interventricular septal origin was significantly higher in the ablation success group than in ablation failure group (261(62.4%) vs. 22 (44.0%) , P=0.01, and 233(55.7%) vs. 18(36.0%), P=0.005), while percent of patients with epicardial origin was significantly lower in the ablation success group than in ablation failure group (17(4.1%) vs. 11(22.0%), P<0.001). Immediate success rate was the highest for patients with the septal origin and the lowest for patients with epicardial origin (92.8%(233/251) vs. 60.7%(17/28), P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the origin site of VAs was the most important independent factor related to the success rate of ablation. Compared with the septal origin patients, patients with RVOT-aorta root and epicardial origin VAs faced with 1.82-fold and 8.26-fold increased risk of failed ablation, respectively (OR=2.82, 95%CI 1.05-7.57, and OR=9.26, 95%CI 3.60-23.86). Sex category was not the independent risk factor for failed ablation(OR=1.76, 95%CI 0.93-3.33, P=0.08) .
Conclusions:The immediate success rate of radiofrequency catheter ablation for idiopathic RVOT ventricular arrhythmia is relative high, however, immediate success rate of radiofrequency catheter ablation is relatively low for patients with epicardial and RVOT-aorta root origin arrhythmia and VAs origin is an independent risk factor of immediate ablation success rate.
