Popis: BACKGROUND: We previously developed an intraprocedural automated site of origin localization system to identify the origin of early left ventricular (LV) activation using 12-lead ECGs. However, it has limitations, as it could not identify the site of origin in the right ventricle (RV), and relied on acquiring a complete electroanatomic map (EAM). OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to present a new system, the Automatic Arrhythmia Origin Localization (AAOL) system, which utilized incomplete EAM for localization of idiopathic ventricular arrhythmia (IVA) origin on the patient-specific geometry of LV, RV and neighboring vessels. The accuracy of the system in localizing IVA source sites on cardiac structures where pace-mapping is challenging was assessed. METHODS: Twenty patients undergoing IVA catheter ablation had a 12-lead ECG recorded during clinical arrhythmia and during pacing at various locations identified on EAM geometries. The new system combined 3-lead (III, V2, V6) 120-ms QRS integrals and patient-specific EAM geometry with pace mapping to predict the site of earliest ventricular activation. The predicted site was projected onto EAM geometry. RESULTS: Twenty-three IVA origin sites were clinically identified by activation mapping and/or pace mapping (8 RV; 15 LV, including 8 from the posteromedial papillary muscle; 2 from the aortic root; and 1 from the distal coronary sinus). The new system achieved a mean localization accuracy of 3.6 mm for the 23 mapped IVAs. CONCLUSIONS: The new intraprocedural AAOL system achieved accurate localization of IVA origin in ventricles and neighbouring vessels, which could facilitate ablation procedures for patients with IVAs.
