Ventricular fibrillation mechanism and global fibrillatory organization are determined by gap junction coupling and fibrosis pattern

Balvinder S. Handa et al.

Summary: Conflicting data exist supporting differing mechanisms for sustaining ventricular fibrillation (VF), ranging from disorganized multiple-wavelet activation to organized rotational activities (RAs). The degree of gap junction (GJ) coupling and pattern of fibrosis influences the mechanism sustaining VF. There is a continuous spectrum of organization in VF, ranging between globally organized fibrillation sustained by stable RAs and disorganized, possibly multiple-wavelet driven fibrillation with no RAs.

Feasibility of catheter ablation in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation guided by fragmented late-gadolinium enhancement areas

Kunihiko Kiuchi et al.

Summary: The study found that radiofrequency ablation of fragmented LGE areas in patients with persistent AF can result in favorable responses in half of the patients, either terminating AF or converting it to atrial tachycardia. The FLA ablation group had significantly lower AF recurrence at 12 months follow-up compared to the PVI group, and patients with a favorable response had lower rates of AT recurrence.

Late-gadolinium enhancement properties associated with atrial fibrillation rotors in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation

Toshihiro Nakamura et al.

Summary: The study found that AF rotors are mostly distributed in relatively weak and much more heterogenous LGE areas, mainly around the pulmonary vein antrum in patients with persistent AF. LGE-entropy and LGE-volume ratio are effective indicators for evaluating the LGE properties of AF rotors.
