Outcomes of deep sedation for catheter ablation of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, with adaptive servo ventilation.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Catheter ablation for paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) is an established treatment, but the effect of deep sedation on PSVT inducibility remains unclear.

Aim

We sought to examine PSVT inducibility and outcomes of catheter ablation under deep sedation using adaptive servo ventilation (ASV).

Methods

We retrospectively evaluated consecutive patients who underwent catheter ablation for PSVT under deep sedation (Propofol + Dexmedetomidine) with use of ASV. Anesthetic depth was controlled with BIS™ monitoring, and phenylephrine was administered to prevent anesthesia-induced hypotension. PSVT induction was attempted in all patients using extrastimuli at baseline, and after isoproterenol (ISP) infusion when necessary.

Results

PSVT was successfu
