Long-Term Effects of Ganglionated Plexi Ablation on Electrophysiological Characteristics and Neuron Remodeling in Target Atrial Tissues in a Canine Model.

BACKGROUND The long-term effects of ganglionated plexi ablation on electrophysiological characteristics and neuron remodeling in target atrial tissues remain unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS Dogs in group 1 (control, n=8) were not subjected to ganglionated plexi ablation and observed for 1 month, and dogs in groups 2 to 4 (ablation groups, n=8 each) underwent ablation of the right-sided gangliona...

Exploration of theoretical ganglionated plexi ablation technique in atrial fibrillation surgery.

BACKGROUND Ganglionated plexi ablation during atrial fibrillation surgery is not technically standardized for precise ganglionated plexi locations or ablation sequence. We aimed to identify precise active ganglionated plexi locations in patients with structural heart disease and explore the feasibility of anatomic ganglionated plexi ablation without prior mapping in patients with atrial fibrill...

Left Atrial Ganglionated Plexi Detection is Related to Heart Rate and Early Recurrence of Atrial Fibrillation after Surgical Ablation

INTRODUCTION: Left atrial ganglionated plexi ablation is an adjuvant technique used to increase the success rate of surgical ablation of atrial fibrillation. Ganglionated plexi ablation requires previous detection. We aimed to assess determinants of successful ganglionated plexi detection and to correlate range of ganglionated plexi ablation with risk of early atrial fibrillation recurrence. ...

Effect of Low-Level Electrical Stimulation of the Arotic Root Ventricular Ganglionated Plexi on Electrical and Structural Remodling in Dogs with Heart Failure

The rise of vagal tone facilitated the activity of pulmonary veins and played an important role in the initiation of AF [1]. Autonomic nerve stimulation shortens AERP, decreases the wavelength of atrial reentrant circuits and increases dAERP, thus, promoting the stability of AF [2]. Several studies have demonstrated that additional ablation of epicardiol ganglionated plexi (GP) improved success...

Catheter Ablation of Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

Catheter ablation for symptomatic, drug-resistant atrial fibrillation (AF) has become an important therapeutic option over the past decade. Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has been established as the cornerstone for ablation of paroxysmal AF. However, there is a dearth of data regarding the ideal approach for patients with persistent AF. It is generally accepted that PVI alone is insufficient fo...
