Background: Atrioventricular-nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is a common supraventricular tachycardia, particularly in younger patients. The treatment of choice is radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA), traditionally necessitating ionizing radiation for catheter guidance.
Objective: The authors aimed to demonstrate the feasibility and safety of zero-fluoroscopy RFCA of AVNRT using EnSite™ NavX™ as a three-dimensional (3D) electroanatomical mapping system (EAM).
Methods: The authors retrospectively analyzed 68 patients that underwent AVNRT-RFCA. One group was a priori allocated to conventional fluoroscopy mapping (convFluoro, n = 30). In 38 cases, the electrophysiologist chose to use 3D-EAM for ablation. Of these patients, 20 could be ablated without fluoroscopy use (zeroFluoro). In 18 cases that were initially intended as 3D-EAM, additional fluoroscopy use was necessary due to difficult anatomic conditions (convertedFluoro). Procedure duration, fluoroscopy duration and dose, as well as complications were analyzed.
Results: Procedure duration was similar for the convFluoro and zeroFluoro groups (74 ± 24 min vs. 80 ± 26 min, p = ns). The convertedFluoro group showed longer procedure duration compared to the convFluoro group (94 ± 30 min vs. 74 ± 24 min, p < 0.05). The use of 3D-EAM significantly reduced fluoroscopy duration comparing the convFluoro with the convertedFluoro group (12 ± 9 min vs. 7 ± 6 min, p < 0.05). The difference in fluoroscopy dose between convFluoro and convertedFluoro did not reach significance (169 ± 166 cGycm2 vs. 134 ± 137 cGycm2, p = ns). In zeroFluoro cases, no radiation was used at all. 3D-EAM-guided RFCA was primarily successful in all patients. Overall, there were only few minor complications in the different groups. No major complications occurred.
Conclusion: Zero-fluoro RFCA in patients with AVNRT is feasible and safe. 3D-EAM can reduce radiation exposure in the majority of patients without prolonging procedure duration or increasing complications.
