Online webinar training to analyse complex atrial fibrillation maps: A randomized trial.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Specific tools have been recently developed to map atrial fibrillation (AF) and help guide ablation. However, when used in clinical practice, panoramic AF maps generated from multipolar intracardiac electrograms have yielded conflicting results between centers, likely due to their complexity and steep learning curve, thus limiting the proper assessment of its clinical impact. OBJECTIVES:The main purpose of this trial was to assess the impact of online training on the identification of AF driver sites where ablation terminated persistent AF, through a standardized training program. Extending this concept to mobile health was defined as a secondary objective. METHODS:An online database of panoramic AF movies was generated from a multicenter registry of patients in whom targeted ab
