- W2074651412 abstract "Background The role of pulmonary veins (PVs) in persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) perpetuation appears less important than in paroxysmal AF. Electrogram-based substrate ablation is not widely performed as a stand-alone strategy. Objective To evaluate PV activity in AF perpetuation and efficacy of our patient-tailored ablation strategy (electrogram-based substrate ablation with or without pulmonary vein isolation [PVI]). Methods One hundred twenty-one patients with paroxysmal (n = 19; 15.7%), persistent (n = 77; 63.6%), or long-standing persistent (n = 25; 20.7%) AF underwent electrogram-based substrate ablation with AF termination end point: sinus rhythm or atrial tachycardia conversion. Before ablation, we classified PVs as “passive” if silent PV or if PV cycle length is greater than left atrial appendage cycle length. No PVI was performed in such cases. Results Passive PVs were observed in 52 of 121 patients (paroxysmal AF = 0%, persistent AF = 40%, and long-standing persistent AF = 76%; P < .0001]). Substrate ablation terminated AF in 95.6% (sinus rhythm conversion in 80.2%). Compared with patients with active PVs, patients with passive PVs had longer AF sustained duration (19.1 ± 29.7 months vs 4.9 ± 11.1 months; P < .0001), larger left atrial diameter (46.9 ± 7.3 mm vs 41.9 ± 6.0 mm; P = .0014), lower left ventricular ejection fraction (45.4% ± 13.5% vs 55.1% ± 9.4%; P < .0001), and more often structural heart disease (57% vs 33%; P = .02). After a follow-up of 20.39 ± 11.23 months (1.6 procedures per patient), 82% were arrhythmia free with this strategy. Conclusions PV activity during AF decreases with AF chronicity, left atrial dilatation, and left ventricular ejection fraction. Our patient-tailored ablation strategy without systematic PVI provides good results.
