Plasma natriuretic peptides during supraventricular tachycardia: A study in patients with atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia

Aims: To characterize the plasma levels of the atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in patients with atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia (AVNRT), we measured the plasma levels of these peptides before and during tachycardia. Methods: We included 10 consecutive patients scheduled for ablation of typical AVNRT without structural heart disease. Catheters were inserted in the femoral artery, femoral vein, and coronary sinus (CS) prior to the ablation procedure. Blood samples were drawn before and after 3 min of tachycardia to measure plasma levels of ANP and BNP. Right atrial pressure (RAP) was measured at baseline. Results: Of the 10 patients, in three patients it was not possible to induce tachycardia leaving a total of 7 patients available for analysis. Mean age of the seven included patients was 40 ± 12 years (mean ± SD), five were female. ANP levels increased significantly during tachycardia in the artery (p = 0.0009) and vein (p = 0.003), but only borderline in CS (p = 0.09). BNP levels did not change during tachycardia in any location. Conclusion: ANP levels measured in the peripheral circulation increased acutely during tachycardia due to AVNRT. BNP levels did not increase.

Comparison of remote magnetic versus manual catheter navigation for ablation of atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia

Objective The purpose of this study was to compare remote magnetic catheter navigation with manual navigation for the ablation of atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia （AVNRT）. Methods From November 2007 to November 2009, 30 consecutive patients with AVNRT received radiofrequency ablation in the Institute of Geriatric Cardiology. Of them, 14 were treated with remote magnetic navigation （RMN） and 16 with manual catheter navigation （MCN）. Total fluoroscopic time,procedure time, procedural success rate, and complication rate were compared between the two groups. Results Total fluoroscopy time and precise orientation time were reduced in RMN group compared to MCN group （7.5＋0.3 min vs 13.9~5.3 rain, and 1.0-x-0.3 min vs 3.2：~0.6 min, respectively, both P〈0.05）. Procedural success rates in both groups were 100% and no AVNRT recurred in all patients during 3 months＇ follow-up. The number of lesions delivered was less for RMN group （3.4~1.1 vs 6.3＋2.2, P〈0.05）. Total procedure time （25.6~7.5 rain vs 27.5a：6.2 rain,/〉〉0.05） was similar between the 2 groups. No procedural complications occurred in both groups. Conclusions RMN for mapping and ablation of AVNRT significantly reduce precise orientation time, total fluoroscopy time and number of lesions delivered compared to the conventional technique of manual steering of deflectable catheters. Remote magnetic control mapping and ablation of AVNRT is more safe and feasible （J Geriatr Cardio12010; 7：7-9）.

Radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia guided by magnetic navigation system： a prospective randomized comparison with conventional procedure

Background Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia （AVNRT） is one of the most common paroxysmal supraventricular tachyarrhythmias. The aim of the study was to prospectively compare the characteristics of radiofrequency catheter ablation of AVNRT guided by a magnetic navigation system with the conventional procedure. Methods Patients with AVNRT diagnosed by electrophysiological tests were randomized into two groups. In the conventional technique group （CMT）, a common 4-mm-tip quadrapolar temperature-controlled ablation catheter was used. In the magnetic navigation system guidance group （MNS）, a magnetic 4-mm-tip quadrapolar temperature-controlled ablation catheter was used. The following parameters were collected and compared between the two groups： ablation procedure time, patient fluoroscopy time, operator fluoroscopy time, energy delivery numbers, maximal energy per deployment, success rate, complication rate and operative cost. Results Forty patients were enrolled and randomized into CMT and MNS groups. The age, gender, tachycardia history and basic cardiovascular diseases of the two groups were comparable （P 〉0.05）. All procedures were conducted successfully without complications. No tachycardia recurred during the follow-up period of （9.3±2.6） months. In the MNS group, the patient and operator fluoroscopy times （（11.5±4.3） min, （4.2±1.5） min）, energy delivery numbers （3.2_＋0.9）, and maximal energy per deployment （16.9±3.4） W） were shorter or lower than those of the CMT group （（14.3±6.2） min, （13.6±3.5） min, 6.3±2.1, （23.7±1.3） W, respectively） （P 〈0.05）. But the operative cost for the MNS group was higher than that of the CMT group （P 〈0.01 ）. Conclusion Magnetic navigation system guided radiofrequency catheter ablation of AVNRT has the advantages of shorter fluoroscopy time and lower energy delivery numbers and maximal energy per deployment compared to the present conventional ablation technique.

Rare narrow QRS tachycardia with atrioventricular dissociation: A case report

BACKGROUND Most Mahaim fibers are right free-wall atriofascicular accessory pathways with only antegrade conduction.Concealed Mahaim fiber is not very rare;however,concealed nodoventricular fiber is a very rare kind of retrograde accessory pathway in supraventricular tachycardia with atrioventricular(AV)dissociation.Only a few cases about successful ablation of the nodoventricular accessory pathway have been reported.We describe the case of a 32-year-old woman who underwent an electrophysiology study and radiofrequency(RF)ablation of a rare narrow QRS tachycardia with AV dissociation.CASE SUMMARY A 32-year-old woman with a history of paroxysmal palpitation was admitted to our hospital for RF ablation.Electrocardiography revealed a narrow QRS complex tachycardia with the same morphology in sinus rhythm.Echocardiography showed no structural heart disease.A right-sided concealed AV accessory pathway and a right-sided concealed nodoventricular accessory pathway were involved in the orthodromic atrioventricular reciprocating tachycardia.His bundle-ventricular interval during tachycardia was the same as that in sinus rhythm.The tachycardia could be initiated and entrained by ventricular pacing.Premature right ventricular stimulus introduced during the His-bundle refractory period when tachycardia occurred was able to advance the next atrial potential.The earliest atrial activation was mapped near the proximal slow AV nodal pathway.RF ablation of both accessary pathways was successfully performed under the guidance of a three-dimensional mapping system by recording the earliest retrograde atrial potential,and tachycardia could no longer be induced.CONCLUSION Narrow QRS tachycardia with AV dissociation is inducible by concealed nodoventricular fiber and ablated by recording the earliest retrograde atrial potential.

Clinical Study on the Treatment of 325 Cases of Atrioventricular Node Reentrant Tachycardia by Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation

In order to improve the efficacy of modified inferior method or middle method of radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) in the treatment of atrioventricular node reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT), the clinical data of 325 cases of AVNRT from March 1992 to Feb. 2000 being subjected to the treatment of RFCA were retrospectively analyzed. The results showed that the successful rate was increased and recurrence was decreased year by year. In the recent 4 years the effective rate was up to 100 %. The complication of three grade of AVB occurred in 3 % and recurrent rate in 9.1 % before March 1996, but both of them were zero in the last 3 years. The time of RFCA procedure and X ray exposure was significantly reduced. It was concluded that ablating more than 3 targets by modified inferior method or middle method with energy titrating and strict endpoint was the crux of obtaining satisfactory therapeutic effects and preventing recurrence.

Value of the adenosine test for diagnosis of dual AV nodal physiology in patients with AV nodal reentrant tachycardia

Objectives: This study was aimed at assessing the value of the adenosine test for noninvasive diagnosis of dual AV nodal physiology(DAVNP) in patients with AV nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT). Methods: 53 patients with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) were given incremental doses of adenosine intravenously during sinus rhythm before electrophysiological study. The adenosine test was repeated on a subset of 18 patients with AVNRT after radiofrequency catheter ablation. Results: Sudden increments of PR interval of more than 60 msec between two consecutive beats were observed in 26(83.9%) of 31 patients with typical AVNRT and 2 (9.1%) of 22 patients with AVRT and AT ( P <0.01). The maximal PR increment between 2 consecutive beats in the AVNRT group(105±45ms) was significantly greater than that in the AVRT and AT group (20±13ms) ( P <0.01).In postablation adenosine test, DAVNP was eliminated in all 8 patients who underwent slow pathway abolition that EPS showed the slow pathway disappeared and 4 of 10 patients who underwent slow pathway modification that EPS showed the slow pathway persisted. Six of 10 patients who exhibited persistent duality showed a marked reduction in the number of beats conducted in the slow pathway after adenosine injection( P <0.01).Conclusions: Administration of adenosine during sinus rhythm may be a useful bedside test for diagnosis of DAVNP in high percentage of patients with typical AVNRT and additionally for evaluating the effects of radiofrequency ablation.

Ablation of left-deviated dual atrioventricular nodal pathway from coronary sinus

Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia （AVNRT） is one of the most common types of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. The mechanism of AVNRT is reentry associated with dual or multiple atrioventricular nodal （AVN） pathways. Typical AVNRT pathways, including fast and slow pathways, are confined in the right atrium.

Evaluation of AVNRT & AVRT by Different Criteria: Old & New

The two most frequent causes of paroxysmal SVT are atrioventricular tachycardia (AVRT) and atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia (AVNRT). The purpose of this study was to assess the diagnostic efficacy of traditional and newly proposed ECG criteria in the identification of Avnrt and Avrt. Aim of the Study: The aim of this study was to evaluate Atrioventricular Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia (AVNRT) and Atrioventricular Re-entrant Tachycardia (AVRT) using both traditional and novel criteria. Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted at the Electrophysiology Unit, Department of Cardiology, National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD) in Dhaka, from February 2019 to January 2020. A total of 62 patients with Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT) undergoing electrophysiology study (EPS) were included. Standard ECG criteria were applied for the differential diagnosis, and electrophysiological diagnoses were made using established criteria. Statistical analysis, including descriptive statistics and appropriate tests, was performed using SPSS 23.0. Result: In our study of 62 patients with Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT), we found that 66.1% had AVNRT and 33.9% had AVRT. The mean age in AVNRT was higher than AVRT (41.3 ± 9.7 vs. 38.5 ± 14.3, p = 0.36) with statistically no significant difference, with similar gender distribution between AVNRT and AVRT groups. Classical AVNRT criteria were present in 30.6% of patients, and 45.2% showed a Pseudo R' wave in aVR. Additionally, 30.6% had an RP interval ≥100ms, more prevalent in AVRT patients (66.7%). Conclusion: Integrating traditional and novel criteria, including lead aVR analysis, enhances the electrocardiographic diagnosis of AVNRT and AVRT, offering a pathway to refined patient care.

Assessment of slow pathway function after successful radiofrequency modification in patients with typical AV nodal reentry tachycardia by the use of the maximal AH interval

Background Persistence of slow pathway (SP) function after SP modification is not uncommon after successful rediofrequency (RF) ablation of typical AV nodal reentry tachycardia (AVNRT). Methods and results We compared two methods (maximal AH interval during decremental atrial stimlation vs occurrence of AV nodal echos or dual AV nodal physiology (DAVNP): ≥50 msec increment in AH interval with a 10 msec decrement in A1A2) for the assessment of SP function immediately and 40 minutes after successful RF modification of SP. In 31 consecutive patients (age: 51±16 years, 18 women, 13 men) with typical AVNRT, SP modification was performed using a combined anatomic and electrogram guided approach. Immediately after successful SP modification, AV nodal function was assessed. This was repeated 40 minutes later. RF modification of SP was successful in all 31 patients. There was no recurrance during a 5±3 month follow up period. There was no significant difference between the electrophysiological parameters immediately and University of Frankfurt, Germany (Li YG, Bogun F, Grnefeld G, Hohnloser SH and Goethe JW)40 min after successful SP modification. There was evidence of SP function in 14 patients (6 with DAVNP+AV nodal echoes, 8 with either DAVNP or AV nodal echos) immehiately after SP modification. These patients could be differentiated from the patients without remaining SP function by maximal AH interval (298±102 msec vs 198±72 msec, P=0.004). 40 minutes after the suucessful SP modification, 11 patients displayed SP function (4 patients with DAVNP+AV nodal echos, 7 patients with either DAVNP or AV nodal echos). These patients could also be differentiated from the remaining patients with the use of the maximal AH interval (294±89 msec vs 189±50 msec, P<0.001).[BHDFG3,WK9ZQ,WK6,WK10*2,WK5W]Befroe SP modificationImmediately after RF40 min after RF[BHDZG1*2,WK9ZQ,WK6,WK10*2,WK5W]AVNERP (msec)258±44310±116316±114AVBCL (msec)330±55384±113376±110VABCL (msec)306±67306± 66311±54Max AH (msec)337±96247±100233±86 Conclusion SP function assessed immediately and 40 minutes after a successful SP modification remains stable.
