Heart rhythm, Volume 13, Issue 4, 14 2 2015, Pages 860-869 QRS prolongation after premature stimulation is associated with polymorphic ventricular tachycardia in nonischemic cardiomyopathy: Results from the Leiden Nonischemic Cardiomyopathy Study. Piers SR, Askar SF, Venlet J, Androulakis AF, Kapel GF, de Riva Silva M, Jongbloed JJ, van Tintelen JP, Schalij MJ, Pijnappels DA, Zeppenfeld K
Background: Progressive activation delay after premature stimulation has been associated with ventricular fibrillation in nonischemic cardiomyopathy (NICM). Objectives: The objectives of this study were (1) to investigate prolongation of the paced QRS duration (QRSd) after premature stimulation as a marker of activation delay in NICM, (2) to assess its relation to induced ventricular arrhythmias, and (3) to analyze its underlying substrate by late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonanc...

Background: High idiopathic premature ventricular contractions (PVC) burden has been associated with PVC-induced cardiomyopathy. Patients may be symptomatic before left ventricular (LV) dysfunction develops. N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and circumferential end-systolic wall stress (cESS) on echocardiography are markers for increased ventricular wall stress. This study aimed to evaluate the relation between presenting symptoms, PVC burden, and increased ventricular wall s... Abstract

Circulation. Arrhythmia and electrophysiology, Volume 8, Issue 4, 12 2 2015, Pages 853-862 Reassessing noninducibility as ablation endpoint of post-infarction ventricular tachycardia: the impact of left ventricular function. de Riva M, Piers SR, Kapel GF, Watanabe M, Venlet J, Trines SA, Schalij MJ, Zeppenfeld K
Background: Noninducibility is frequently used as procedural end point of ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation after myocardial infarction. We investigated the influence of left ventricular (LV) function on the predictive value of noninducibility for VT recurrence and cardiac mortality. Methods and results: Ninety-one patients (82 men, 67±10 years) with post-myocardial infarction VT underwent ablation between 2009 and 2012. Fifty-nine (65%) had an LV ejection fraction (EF) >30% (mean 41±7) a... Abstract

Europace : European pacing, arrhythmias, and cardiac electrophysiology : journal of the working groups on cardiac pacing, arrhythmias, and cardiac cellular electrophysiology of the European Society of Cardiology, Volume 17, Issue 9, 2 1 2015, Pages 1383-1390 Incidence and predictors of dormant conduction after cryoballoon ablation incorporating a 30-min waiting period. Compier MG, De Riva M, Dyrda K, Zeppenfeld K, Schalij MJ, Trines SA
Aims: Electrical reconnection after pulmonary vein (PV) isolation is associated with atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence. Reconnection may already develop within a 30 min waiting period and may only occur as dormant conduction (DC) revealed by adenosine infusion. This study determines incidence and predictors of DC after cryoballoon ablation incorporating a 30 min waiting period and the effect of treating this 'late' DC on 1 year AF-recurrence. Methods and results: Consecutive patients... Abstract

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, Volume 65, Issue 18, 22 4 2015, Pages 1954-1959 Predictive value of programmed ventricular stimulation after catheter ablation of post-infarction ventricular tachycardia. Yokokawa M, Kim HM, Baser K, Stevenson W, Nagashima K, Della Bella P, Vergara P, Hindricks G, Arya A, Zeppenfeld K, de Riva Silva M, Daoud EG, Kumar S, Kuck KH, Tilz R, Mathew S, Ghanbari H, Latchamsetty R, Morady F, Bogun FM
Background: A recent meta-analysis demonstrated a survival benefit in post-infarction patients whose ventricular tachycardia (VT) was rendered noninducible by catheter ablation. Furthermore, patients with noninducible VT had a lower VT recurrence rate than did patients whose VT remained inducible after ablation. Objectives: The purpose of this multicenter cohort study was to assess whether noninducibility after VT ablation is independently associated with improved survival. Methods: Data from 1,... Abstract

Aims: To identify clinical characteristics able to predict a left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) origin in outflow tract ventricular arrhythmias (OTVAs). Methods and results: We included 117 consecutive patients (training sample) with successful radiofrequency ablation of OTVA in one centre. A predictive model for LVOT origin was obtained using clinical data. The model was prospectively validated in a second population (testing sample) of 143 patients from two additional centres. In training s... Abstract

Objectives: This study evaluates whether contrast-enhanced (CE) cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) can be used to identify critical isthmus sites for ventricular tachycardia (VT) in ischemic and nonischemic heart disease. Background: Fibrosis interspersed with viable myocytes may cause re-entrant VT. CE-CMR has the ability to accurately delineate fibrosis. Methods: Patients who underwent VT ablation with CE-CMR integration were included. After the procedure, critical isthmus sites (defined as site... Abstract
