Abstract:
Objective To explore the risk factors for puncture site complications after radiofrequen-cy catheter ablation(RFCA)in elderly patients with tachyarrhythmias.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 290 elderly tachyarrhythmic patients undergoing RFCA in our depart-ment from January 2017 to June 2023.According to the occurrence of postoperative complications during hospitalization,they were divided into a complication group(13 cases)and a non-complica-tion group(277 cases).The basic clinical data were compared between the two groups.Multivari-ate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent influencing factors for periop-erative puncture site complications in RFCA,and ROC curves were plotted to determine the pre-dictive value of BMI on puncture site complications.Results Puncture site complications were more common in atrial arrhythmia radiofrequency ablation,followed by supraventricular arrhyth-mia,and but rare in ventricular arrhythmia,with statistical difference in the incidence(P=0.014).The complication group had significantly higher BMI and larger proportion of atrial ar-rhythmias when compared with the non-complication group(P＜0.05).There were no statistical differences between the two groups in terms of age,proportions of ventricular arrhythmia,su-praventricular arrhythmia,hypertension and type 2 diabetes(P＞0.05).Multivariate logistic re-gression analysis showed that higher BMI was a risk factor for puncture site complications in eld-erly tachyarrhythmic patients after RFCA(OR=1.256,95％CI:1.032-1.528,P=0.023).ROC curve analysis indicated that the AUC value of BMI in predicting puncture site complications was 0.702(95％CI:0.586-0.817,P=0.018),with a sensitivity of 91.7％,a specificity of 49.6％,and a Yoden index of 0.413.Conclusion RFCA for atrial arrhythmias is closely associated with punc-ture site complications,and BMI has a predictive value for the complications of puncture site.
