High density mapping guided partial antral ablation for a pulmonary vein isolation
Abstract The muscular discontinuities at the pulmonary vein (PV)–left atrial (LA) junction are known. The high-density mapping may help to find the muscular discontinuity. This study evaluated the efficacy of a partial antral ablation for a pulmonary vein (PV) isolation using high density (HD) mappi...

Abstract The muscular discontinuities at the pulmonary vein (PV)–left atrial (LA) junction are known. The high-density mapping may help to find the muscular discontinuity.

The detailed activation mapping of each PV and LA junction was performed using an HD mapping system, and each PV segment’s activation pattern was classified into a “directly-activated from the LA” or “passively-activated from an adjacent PV segment” pattern. The antral ablations were performed at the directly-activated PV segments only when the PV had “passively-activated segments”. If the PV did not contain passively-activated segments, a circumferential antral ablation was performed on those PVs.
