Single-catheter validation of bidirectional block during atrial flutter ablation Piotr Futyma, MD, Marian Futyma, MD, PhD, Konrad Dudek, MD, Piotr Kułakowski, MD, PhD, FESC HeartRhythm Case Reports Volume 2, Issue 1, Pages 67-70 (January 2016) DOI: 10.1016/j.hrcr.2015.10.004 Copyright © 2016 Heart Rhythm Society Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Right panels show intracardiac electrograms from the distal (Map D) and proximal (Map P) tip of the ablation catheter and surface electrocardiogram lead III. Left panels show fluoroscopic images of the right atrium in the left lateral oblique projection (45 degrees) showing 2 permanent pacemaker leads in the right ventricle and in the right atrium, ablation electrode, with superimposed arrows showing direction of depolarization wave, important structures, and site of block (zig-zag arrow). A: Before ablation during pacing from the ventricular pacing lead, atrial electrogram is earlier in Map D than in Map P because there is no block in the cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI), the distance from septum to ablation electrode tip is shorter through the CTI than along the tricuspid annulus in the counterclockwise direction, and therefore the impulse first reaches Map D and later Map P. B: After ablation the CTI block is created and the impulse travels along the tricuspid annulus, first reaching Map P and later Map D. Thus, CTI block in the clockwise direction is documented. AVN = atrioventricular node; PS = pacing site (pacemaker ventricular lead).

Figure 2 Right panel shows intracardiac electrograms from the ablation electrode before (A) and after (B) creating cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) block. A: Before ablation there is a single atrial signal (SP = single potential) because the activation wavefront approaches the tip of the ablation electrode only from 1 side. B: After creation of the CTI block, the impulse reaches the CTI first from the septal side, and after 101 msec from the other side of the block, resulting in 2 split atrial potentials (DP = double potentials). Thus, the CTI block in the clockwise direction is documented and strongly suggest true bidirectional block. Abbreviations as in Figure 1.

Figure 3 Right panel shows intracardiac electrograms from the distal (Map D) and proximal (Map P) tip of the ablation catheter and surface electrocardiogram (ECG) lead I during differential pacing, after completing the cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) ablation line. A: Pacing from Map P shows 205 msec distance to QRS complex recorded on surface ECG. B: During Map D pacing, owing to existence of counterclockwise CTI block, the impulse travels only in the clockwise direction, arrives into the atrioventricular node, and activates the ventricles, which is unveiled by prolongation of the measured distance from Map P to QRS complex recorded on surface ECG. Thus, CTI block in the counterclockwise direction is also confirmed. PS = pacing site.
