Clinical experience with a novel electromyographic approach to preventing phrenic nerve injury during cryoballoon ablation in atrial fibrillation.
BACKGROUND Phrenic nerve palsy remains the most frequent complication associated with cryoballoon-based pulmonary vein (PV) isolation. We sought to characterize our experience using a novel monitoring technique for the prevention of phrenic nerve palsy. METHODS AND RESULTS Two hundred consecutive cryoballoon-based PV isolation procedures between October 2010 and October 2013 were studied. In ...
متن کاملElectromyographic monitoring for prevention of phrenic nerve palsy in second-generation cryoballoon procedures.
BACKGROUND Electromyography-guided phrenic nerve (PN) monitoring using a catheter positioned in a hepatic vein can aid in preventing phrenic nerve palsy (PNP) during cryoballoon ablation for atrial fibrillation. We wanted to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of PN monitoring during procedures using second-generation cryoballoons. METHODS AND RESULTS This study included 140 patients (43 wo...
متن کاملNovel electromyographic monitoring technique for prevention of right phrenic nerve palsy during cryoballoon ablation.
BACKGROUND Right phrenic nerve palsy (PNP) is the most frequent complication of cryoballoon ablation. Diaphragmatic electromyography can predict PNP with a comfortable safety margin. Our goal was to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of electromyography-guided PN monitoring using a novel hepatic vein approach for prevention of PNP. METHODS AND RESULTS This study includes 57 patien...
متن کاملPulmonary Vein Stenosis After Second-Generation Cryoballoon Ablation.
BACKGROUND Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVST) can occur after first-generation cryoballoon ablation. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence, severity, and characteristics of PVST after second-generation cryoballoon ablation. METHODS In total, 103 patients underwent PV isolation of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation using second-generation cryoballoons with a single big-balloon 3-minute freeze tec...
متن کاملPhrenic Nerve Injury After Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation
UNLABELLED Phrenic Nerve Injury (PNI) has been well studied by cardiac surgeons. More recently it has been recognized as a potential complication of catheter ablation with a prevalence of 0.11 to 0.48 % after atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. This review will focus on PNI after AF ablation. Anatomical studies have shown a close relationship between the right phrenic nerve and it's proximity to...
