Traditional assessment of MI conduction by left atrial activation mapping while pacing from either side of the line is time\u2010consuming, and cannot be performed during ongoing ablation. Analysis of the coronary sinus (CS) activation pattern during left atrial appendage (LAA) pacing has been proposed as a simpler technique for evaluating MI conduction, enabling beat\u2010to\u2010beat assessment of conduction during ablation procedures and prompt identification of conduction block.<\/jats:p><jats:p> <jats:bold>\n            <jats:italic>Methods:<\/jats:italic>\n          <\/jats:bold> MI conduction was evaluated in 40 patients undergoing MI ablation using both: ((i) endocardial activation mapping and other standard techniques, and (ii) CS activation pattern during LAA pacing (change from distal\u2010to\u2010proximal activation to proximal\u2010to\u2010distal taken to signify the onset of MI block)<\/jats:p><jats:p> <jats:bold>\n            <jats:italic>Results:<\/jats:italic>\n          <\/jats:bold> CS activation sequence was used to assess conduction in 39 of 40 patients (unable to advance CS catheter distally in one case). MI block was achieved in 36 of 39 cases. The mean MI conduction time (LAA to distal CS) was 92.9 \u00b1 25.9 ms prior to ablation and 178.4 \u00b1 59.9 ms after MI block was confirmed. The mean step\u2010out in conduction time at point of block was 80.8 \u00b1 40.6 ms. In all individuals in whom CS activation indicated block, there was concordance with endocardial activation, differential pacing and, where detectable, presence of widely split double potentials. CS lesions were required to achieve block in 24 of 36 (67%) successful cases. Radiofrequency application time and procedure time to achieve MI block were 10.8 \u00b1 6.0 minutes and 21.1 \u00b1 15.3 minutes, respectively. <jats:italic>(J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol, Vol. 21, pp. 418\u2013422, April 2010)<\/jats:italic><\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2009.01638.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,11,17]],"date-time":"2009-11-17T21:22:50Z","timestamp":1258492970000},"page":"418-422","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":26,"title":["Validation of Coronary Sinus Activation Pattern During Left Atrial Appendage Pacing for Beat\u2010to\u2010Beat Assessment of Mitral Isthmus Conduction\/Block"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"JOHN","family":"PAISEY","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"TIM R.","family":"BETTS","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"JOSEPH DE","family":"BONO","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"KIM","family":"RAJAPPAN","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"DAVID","family":"TOMLINSON","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"YAVER","family":"BASHIR","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,3,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2005.00308.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2007.07.044"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2005.00308.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2005.00308.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.hrthm.2007.01.021"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2008.01187.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2004.05.072"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2006.00585.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8159.2007.00834.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2006.00585.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2007.00946.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.hrthm.2007.11.025"}],"container-title":["Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1111%2Fj.1540-8167.2009.01638.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2009.01638.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,2]],"date-time":"2023-11-02T10:31:18Z","timestamp":1698921078000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2009.01638.x"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2010,3,26]]},"references-count":12,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2010,4]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2009.01638.x"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2009.01638.x","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1045-3873","1540-8167"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1045-3873","type":"print"},{"value":"1540-8167","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2010,3,26]]}}}
