Observation of Atrial Fibrillation Dependent on an Intra-atrial Re-entrant Tachycardia Within the Right Atrium in a Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot.

ABSTRACT: Atrial fibrillation (AF) can occur predominantly associated with right atrial (RA) lesions in congenital heart disease, particularly when the RA cavity is dilated. RA electrical potentials occasionally appear organized during AF. We clearly mapped such areas circumscribed by an intra-atrial re-entrant circuit during an isoproterenol infusion, in a patient with a repaired tetralogy of Fallot, using an ultrahigh-density mapping system and its beat acceptance criteria function. Ablation of areas inside the re-entrant circuit successfully eliminated the AF. Our experience indicated that a macro-re-entrant tachycardia was a driver as well as a trigger of AF of this right-sided origin.

Re-entrant ventricular tachycardia in a postoperative case of tetralogy of Fallot - Ablated successfully under the three-dimensional mapping system.

Project description:A 47-year-old female underwent cardiac repair for tetralogy of Fallot at the age of 12 years. Subsequently, she was asymptomatic on follow-up. Recently, she presented elsewhere with palpitations and presyncope with documented ventricular tachycardia (VT) having left bundle branch block morphology with inferior QRS axis and late precordial transition. She was reported to have cardioverted and referred to our center for electrophysiology study (EP). She underwent EP study which induced clinical VT which was hemodynamically stable and the mechanism of VT was confirmed as re-entry. With the help of three-dimensional mapping system, VT circuit was identified in the posterior right ventricular outflow tract region between the pulmonary valve and upper end of ventricular septal defect patch. Delivery of radiofrequency energy during VT terminated the tachycardia with no further inducible VT despite aggressive pacing protocols.

Artificial intelligence-enabled electrocardiogram to distinguish atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardia from atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia.

Project description:BackgroundAccurately determining arrhythmia mechanism from a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) of supraventricular tachycardia can be challenging. We hypothesized a convolutional neural network (CNN) can be trained to classify atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardia (AVRT) vs atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia (AVNRT) from the 12-lead ECG, when using findings from the invasive electrophysiology (EP) study as the gold standard.MethodsWe trained a CNN on data from 124 patients undergoing EP studies with a final diagnosis of AVRT or AVNRT. A total of 4962 5-second 12-lead ECG segments were used for training. Each case was labeled AVRT or AVNRT based on the findings of the EP study. The model performance was evaluated against a hold-out test set of 31 patients and compared to an existing manual algorithm.ResultsThe model had an accuracy of 77.4% in distinguishing between AVRT and AVNRT. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.80. In comparison, the existing manual algorithm achieved an accuracy of 67.7% on the same test set. Saliency mapping demonstrated the network used the expected sections of the ECGs for diagnoses; these were the QRS complexes that may contain retrograde P waves.ConclusionWe describe the first neural network trained to differentiate AVRT from AVNRT. Accurate diagnosis of arrhythmia mechanism from a 12-lead ECG could aid preprocedural counseling, consent, and procedure planning. The current accuracy from our neural network is modest but may be improved with a larger training dataset.

Intracardiac Echocardiography to Assist Anatomical Isthmus Ablation in Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot Patients With Ventricular Tachycardia: Technique and Outcomes.

Project description:BackgroundSuccessful catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) in repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) can be achieved by targeting 1 or more anatomical isthmuses. However, significant interindividual variability in the size and location of surgical patches means careful mapping is required to design ablation lines to block the isthmus. Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) may assist ablation by accurate identification of individual TOF anatomy.ObjectivesThe authors hypothesized ICE-guided VT ablation improved isthmus recognition, ablation, and procedural outcomes.MethodsRetrospective study of adults with repaired TOF undergoing VT ablation between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2022. ICE integration was compared to a strategy using electroanatomical mapping only to identify anatomic boundaries. All cases underwent ablation and had proven isthmus block as the procedural endpoint.ResultsTwenty-three patients (age 47 ± 14 years; 61% male) underwent 27 VT ablations (ICE: 16/27 [59%]; no ICE: 11/27 [41%]). ICE improved the ability to localize and ablate the anatomical isthmus (ICE: 13/15 [87%] vs no ICE: 4/11 [36%]; P = 0.014); however, there was no difference in long-term freedom from VT (ICE: 9/12 [75%] vs no ICE: 8/11 [73%]; P = 0.901). ICE had no impact on procedural times (ICE: 173 ± 48 minutes vs no ICE: 157 ± 47 minutes; P = 0.399), fluoroscopy time (ICE: 30 ± 16 minutes vs no ICE: 29 ± 10 minutes; P = 0.864), or major complications (ICE: 1/16 [6%] vs no ICE 0/11; P = 1.000).ConclusionsICE improves ablation of the anatomical isthmus for sustaining VT in patients with repaired TOF by demonstrating the individual anatomy but does not improve long-term outcomes.

Dual Atrioventricular Nodal Non-Re-Entrant Tachycardia.

Project description:A patient presented with symptoms of palpitations. Her standard 12-lead electrocardiogram captured 3 potential causes of her symptoms (premature atrial contractions, junctional rhythm, and narrow complex tachycardia). Further workup uncovered dual atrioventricular node physiology with 1:2 sinus conduction and resultant alternating QRS from a slow and fast conduction pathway. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).

Complications of Pulmonic Valve Endocarditis in Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot.

Project description:Transthoracic echocardiography plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis of complications, evaluation of hemodynamics, and management of patients with surgically repaired congenital heart disease. Late complications of surgically corrected tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease, include pulmonary regurgitation (PR), ventricular septal defect (VSD) patch leakage, and residual right ventricular outflow tract obstruction. We present a case of severe PR secondary to Bartonella endocarditis in an adult with a history of repaired TOF in which echocardiography was instrumental in the diagnosis of severe PR, residual VSD, and a right-to-left shunt through an unsuspected patent foramen ovale.

Contemporary predictors of death and sustained ventricular tachycardia in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot enrolled in the INDICATOR cohort.

Project description:ObjectivePatients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) experience increased rates of mortality and morbidity in adulthood. This study was designed to identify risk factors for death and ventricular tachycardia (VT) in a large contemporary cohort of patients with repaired TOF.MethodsSubjects with repaired TOF from four large congenital heart centres in the USA, Canada and Europe were enrolled. Clinical, ECG, exercise, cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and outcome data were analysed.ResultsOf the 873 patients (median age 24.4 years), 32 (3.7%) reached the primary outcome (28 deaths, 4 sustained VT; median age at outcome 38 years; median time from CMR to outcome 1.9 years). Cox proportional-hazards regression identified RV mass-to-volume ratio ≥ 0.3 g/mL (HR, 5.04; 95% CI 2.3 to 11.0; p<0.001), LV EF z score<-2.0 (HR, 3.34; 95% CI 1.59 to 7.01; p=0.001), and history of atrial tachyarrhythmia (HR, 3.65; 95% CI 1.75 to 7.62; p=0.001) as outcome predictors. RV dysfunction was predictive of the outcome similar to LV dysfunction. In subgroup analysis of 315 subjects with echocardiographic assessment of RV systolic pressure, higher pressure (HR 1.39; 95% CI 1.19 to 1.62; p<0.001) was associated with death and sustained VT independent of RV hypertrophy and LV dysfunction.ConclusionsRV hypertrophy, ventricular dysfunction and atrial tachyarrhythmias are predictive of death and sustained VT in adults with repaired TOF. These findings may inform risk stratification and the design of future therapeutic trials.

Repolarization Alternans and Ventricular Arrhythmia in a Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot Animal Model.

Project description:Ventricular arrhythmia is an important cause of late death in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF). By using an rTOF canine model, we investigated the role of repolarization alternans and its electrophysiological mechanisms.Six dogs received right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) transannular patch, pulmonary valve destruction, and right bundle branch ablation to simulate rTOF. After 1 year, we performed high-resolution dual-voltage and calcium optical mapping to record action potentials and calcium transients on the excised right ventricular outflow tract wedges. Another 6 dogs without operation served as control. The rTOF group was more susceptible to action potential duration alternans (APD-ALT) and spatially discordant APD-ALT than control (threshold for APD-ALT: 516±36 vs 343±36 ms; P=0.017; threshold for discordant APD-ALT: 387±30 vs 310±14 ms; P=0.046). We detected 2 episodes of ventricular tachycardia in the rTOF group, but none in the control. Expressions of Kv4.3 and KChIP2 decreased in the rTOF group. Expression of connexin 43 also decreased in the rTOF group with a corresponding decrease of conduction velocity and might contribute to spatially discordant APD-ALT. We also found distinct electrophysiological features of the RVOT, including biphasic relationship between magnitude of APD-ALT and pacing cycle length, uncoupling of APD-ALT, and calcium transients alternans, and shortened APD, but unchanged, APD restitution in rTOF.We demonstrated novel electrophysiological properties of the RVOT. In an rTOF model, the RVOT exhibits increased susceptibility to temporal and spatially discordant APD-ALT, which was not totally dependent on calcium transient alternans.

Pulmonary regurgitation after repaired tetralogy of Fallot: surgical versus percutaneous treatment.

Project description:Pulmonary regurgitation is the most important sequellae after correction of Tetralogy of Fallot and has a considerable impact over the right ventricle. Surgery has demonstrated low early mortality after pulmonary valve replacement and good long-term outcomes, remaining nowadays the gold standard treatment of pulmonary regurgitation in rTOF patients. Nevertheless, transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation has emerged as a new, safe and efficient alternative to surgical valve replacement. In this review article, we try to evaluate and compare both techniques to find out which is the best therapeutic option in this patients.
