Résumé
BACKGROUND: Local abnormal ventricular activities (LAVA) in patients with scar-related ventricular tachycardia (VT) may appear at any time during or after the far-field electrogram. Although they may be separated from the far-field signal by an isoelectric line and extend beyond the end of surface QRS, they may also appear fused or buried within the QRS.
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to characterize LAVA in postinfarction VT patients with respect to their anatomic locations.
METHODS: Thirty-one patients with postinfarction VT underwent mapping/ablation during sinus rhythm with a three-dimensional electroanatomic mapping system. From a total of 18,270 electrograms reviewed in all study subjects, 1104 LAVA (endocardium 839, epicardium 265) were identified and analyzed.
RESULTS: The interval from onset of QRS complex to ventricular electrogram (EGM onset) on the endocardium was significantly shorter than the epicardium (P < .001). EGM onset was shortest in the septal endocardium and longest in the inferior and lateral epicardium. There was a significant positive correlation between EGM onset and LAVA lateness as estimated by the interval from surface QRS onset to LAVA (r = 0.52, P < .001). LAVA were more frequently detected after the QRS complex in the epicardium (241/265 [91%]) than in the endocardium (551/839 [66%], P < .001). Only 43% of endocardial septal LAVA were detected after the QRS complex.
CONCLUSION: Lateness of LAVA is affected to a large extent by their locations. The chance of detecting late LAVA increases when electrogram onset is later. Substrate-based approach targeting delayed signals relative to the QRS complex may miss critical the arrhythmogenic substrate, particularly in the septum and other early-to-activate regions.
