Abstract:Ventricular tachycardia (VT) recurrence after catheter ablation remains frequent and improved ablation strategies are needed. The re-entry vulnerability index (RVI) is an activation-repolarization marker to localize critical sites for VT initiation. Its use is limited since current electro-anatomical mapping systems (EAMS) cannot provide global measurement of activation and repolarization times within a single beat. We carried out a simulation study to assess a simple method to measure RVI using data collected… Show more
