Background Cardiac computed tomography (CCT) is an essential tool for an efficient ablation for atrial fibrillation. 3D mapping guided ablation could also deliver sufficient results in the setting of cryoballoon ablation (CBA) with additional advantages regarding total patient radiation exposure, fluoroscopy and procedural time. Purpose To compare the 3D mapping with the Achieve® catheter versus the CCT on the procedural characteristics and acute outcome during CBA. Methods Consecutive patients who underwent CBA with the second-generation cryoballoon (CB) were retrospectively enrolled from a single centre registry. Baseline and procedural characteristics of patients with pre-procedural CCT (CT-Group) were compared to those with peri-procedural 3D mapping (Ensite PrecisionTM ) with the 1st generation Achieve® catheter (3D-Group). Results A total of 696 patients were enrolled, 327 (47%) in the CT-Group and 369 (53%) in the 3D-Group. Baseline characteristics were comparable between the two groups. Similar pulmonary vein (PV) anatomical variations were identified in both groups and all PVs were acutely isolated. The mean CB temperature (T) at 60s, the nadir T, the time to PV isolation, the T of isolation and the mean thaw time did not differ significantly. However, the total procedural and fluoroscopy time were significantly shorter as well as the dose area product was significantly less in the 3D-Group. Conclusion 3D mapping guided CBA using the Achieve® catheter is associated with significantly shorter fluoroscopy and procedural time and less patient radiation exposure. The anatomical acquisition of the PVs and the acute ablation outcome is non inferior to the CCT guided CBA.
