Conduction velocity mapping in atrial fibrillation using omnipolar technology

Background Recent studies have shown that atrial slow conduction velocity (CV) is associated with the perpetuation of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the criteria of CV measurement have not been standardized. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the slow CV area (SCVA) m...

Description
Summary:Background Recent studies have shown that atrial slow conduction velocity (CV) is associated with the perpetuation of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the criteria of CV measurement have not been standardized. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the slow CV area (SCVA) measured by novel omnipolar technology (OT) and AF recurrence. Methods This study included 90 patients with AF who underwent initial pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). The segmented surface area of the SCVA was measured by left atrial (LA) electrophysiological mapping using OT before the PVI. The proportion of the SCVA at each cutoff value of CV (from
