Pulsed field ablation for atrial fibrillation: efficacy, safety and lesion durability in patients with recurrences
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Abstract Background Initial findings from feasibility studies regarding pulsed field ablation (PFA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) indicated substantial efficacy and safety of the procedure, including high rates of lesion durability upon systematic remapping. However, data regarding PFA for AF in real-life settings remains scarce. Objective This pooled analysis was conducted to provide insights into PFA’s practical performance and safety profile in real-life settings, as well as information regarding lesion durability in patients with arrhythmia recurrences. Methods MEDLINE/EMBASE databases were searched up to August 31, 2023 for studies including patients undergoing catheter ablation for AF using PFA. Independent searches were performed by 2 investigators (K.B. and K.V.). Feasibility studies, first-in-human studies, small studies with population overlap, and those with a follow-up duration shorter than one year were excluded from the analysis. Authors were contacted for missing information or to confirm the absence of population overlap. Two investigators (K.B. and K.V.) independently extracted data from studies meeting inclusion criteria. Any discrepancies were resolved by a third experienced reviewer. Results We assessed for relevance a total of 952 references. Five studies met the inclusion criteria (comprising of 1 randomized trial, 2 single arm prospective trials, and 2 post-market registries), with a combined cohort of 2,359 patients who underwent PFA for AF. The pooled rate of acute PVI was 99.6% (95%CI 99.2-99.8, I2:7%). The pooled one-year rates of freedom from atrial arrhythmia for individuals with paroxysmal or persistent AF were 79.5% (95%CI 75.7-83.1, I2:70%) and 67.5% (95%CI 60.9-73.7, I2:60%), respectively. Among patients who underwent repeat catheter ablation for AF recurrences (n=197), the pooled rate of durable PVI per patient was 48.9% (95%CI 30.4-67.7, I2:71%), while durable PVI per vein was 74.1% (95%CI 65.1-82.2, I2: 75%). Incidence of overall complications and serious procedure-related complications were 1.8% (95% CI: 0.2-4.8, I2: 92%) and 0.9% (95% CI: 0.3-1.7, I2:59%), respectively. The most prevalent complication types were access site complications (48.6%), pericardial effusions/tamponades (24.8%) and stroke/transient ischemic attack (9.5%). No esophageal damage or PV stenosis were reported . There was one case of persistent phrenic nerve palsy and two cases of reversible coronary spasm (during ablation along the posterior mitral isthmus, and during PVI, both resolving with intracoronary nitroglycerin). Conclusion This pooled analysis confirms that catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation using pulsed field ablation is associated with high rates of atrial arrhythmia-free survival at one year while maintaining low rates of procedure-related complications. Durable pulmonary vein isolation is observed in approximately half of the patients undergoing a repeat procedure for atrial fibrillation recurrence.
