Current therapies such as an implantable cardioverter defibrillator or anti-arrhythmic drugs are sub-optimial in reducing VT recurrence. Despite advances in mapping technology, radiofrequency catheter ablation (RCA) presents sub-optimal outcomes with 5-year recurrence rates above 50%. Objectives: The main objectives of this study were to compare the safety and efficacy of RCA in patients submitted to VT ablation in the context of ICM and NICM. Methods: Single-centre retrospective study of consecutive patients submitted to VT ablation of substrate-guided and activation-guided VT using multipolar catheters (PentaRay™, Orion™, or HDGrid™) and 3D mapping systems (Carto™, Rhythmia™, or Ensite Precision™). Maps in structural heart disease were evaluated in order to identify intra-cicatricial channels (areas of bipolar voltage <1.5mV) in which sequential propagation of local abnormal ventricular activities (LAVAs) were observed, during or after QRS. The ablation strategy aimed at the abolition of all intra-cicatricial LAVAs, directing the radiofrequency applications primarily to the entrances of the channels. Safety was evaluated by 30-day mortality rate after VT ablation. Efficacy was evaluated by freedom from all-cause mortality, appropriate ICD shocks or CV hospitalization at 36 months. Results: 102 patients were enrolled, 75 ICM and 27 NICM patients (94.1% male, 66.7±10.8 years of age, mean follow-up 31.2±21.2 months). There was a similar safety profile between ICM and NICM (4% vs. 3.7%, P = 0.95) and a similar efficacy at 36 months (58.7% vs 33.3%, p=0.12). Appropriate ICD shocks at 36 months were significantly reduced in patients in whom activation-mapping complemented substrate ablation vs substrate-based ablation alone (5.7% vs 21.2%, p<0.05. Conclusion: There was a similar safety and efficacy profile between ICM and NICM patients referred for VT ablation. These results emphasize the importance of VT ablation in non-ischemic patients with structural heart disease and recurrent ventricular tachycardia.Faculdade de Medicina De LisboaRepositório Científico do Instituto Politécnico do PortoGomes, João Pedro Freitas Sousa Ramos2023-05-29T13:59:30Z2022-072022-07-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10451/57220engmetadata only accessinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-05-31T01:47:38ZPortal AgregadorONG
