Investigation of the predictors of transition to persistent atrial fibrillation in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
BACKGROUND: Until now, no clinically useful indicators have existed that predict the transition from paroxysmal to persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). HYPOTHESIS: The current prospective study was conducted for identifying predictors of progression to persistent AF over the long term. METHODS: We studied 102 consecutive patients (mean age: 55 +/- 10 years: 75 men and 27 women) diagnosed with paroxysmal AF. Standard 12-lead electrocardiography, echocardiography, and P-wave-triggered signal-averaged electrocardiography (P-SAECG) were performed on all patients at the time of their entry into the study. RESULTS: The mean follow-up period was 61 +/- 13 months. Group 1 (n = 66) comprised patients in whom paroxysmal AF did not progress to persistent AF, and Group 2 (n = 36) comprised those who developed persistent AF. In Group 2 the patients were significantly older, and P-wave dispersion, filtered P-wave duration (FPD), and left atrial dimension were significantly higher than in Group 1 (p < 0.05). The root mean square voltage for the last 30 ms of the filtered P-wave was also significantly lower in Group 2 (p < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis using these five factors identified left atrial dimension (odds ratio [OR] 2.29; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.16-4.54; p = 0.02) and FPD (OR 2.71; 95% CI 1.78-4.13; p < 0.01) as independent predictors of transition to persistent AF. Left atrial dimension > or = 40 mm predicted progression to persistent AF with a sensitivity of 64%, specificity of 76%, positive predictive value of 59%, negative predictive value of 79%, and an accuracy of 71%. An FPD > or = 150 ms predicted persistent AF with a sensitivity of 81%, specificity of 91%, positive predictive value of 88%, negative predictive value of 90%, and an accuracy of 87%. Filtered P-wave duration was a significantly more sensitive and specific predictor than left atrial dimension (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: We conclude that FPD is a clinically useful predictor of progression from paroxysmal to persistent AF over the long term. 相似文献

APBs in Persistent Versus Paroxysmal AF. BACKGROUND: Although the electrical disconnection between the left atrium (LA) and pulmonary veins (PVs) by radiofrequency catheter ablation has been proven to be effective in controlling atrial fibrillation (AF), the recurrence rate is higher in patients with persistent AF (PeAF) than with paroxysmal AF (PAF). We hypothesized that the origin of the atrial premature beats (APBs) that trigger AF and the pattern of their breakthrough into the LA differ between PAF and PeAF. METHODS: We mapped 75 APBs (53 APBs triggering AF, 22 isolated APBs) from the LA and PVs in 26 patients with AF (age: 49.5 +/- 9.6, males: 23, PAF = 17, PeAF = 9), using a noncontact endocardial mapping (NCM) system. The location of the preferential conduction (PC) sites and their conduction velocity (CV) were compared. RESULTS: In patients with PeAF, the earliest activation (EA) site and exit of the PC were more frequently located on the LA side of the LA-PV junction as compared with PAF (P < 0.001). Eighty-one percent of the PCs were located in the area between the left and right superior PVs. The incidence of PCs was similar between the PeAF and PAF patients (P = NS). PCs were more commonly found with APBs inducing AF (63.3%) than with those not inducing AF (35.2%, P = 0.01). The CV of the PC was slower for PeAF than PAF (P < 0.001). The CV in the LA during sinus rhythm was also slower for PeAF than PAF (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: PeAF was more frequently triggered by APBs from the LA side of the LA-PV junction than PAF and resulted in slower conduction than did PAF. These findings may help explain the higher potential for recurrence after electrical PV isolation in patients with PeAF. 相似文献

INTRODUCTION: Activation of the endothelin system is an important compensatory mechanism that is activated during left ventricular dysfunction. Whether this system plays a role at the atrial level during atrial fibrillation (AF) has not been examined in detail. The purpose of this study was to investigate mRNA and protein expression levels of the endothelin system in AF patients with and without concomitant underlying valve disease. METHODS AND RESULTS: Right atrial appendages of 36 patients with either paroxysmal or persistent AF were compared with 36 controls in sinus rhythm. The mRNA amounts of pro-endothelin-1 (pro-ET-1), endothelin receptor A (ET-A), and endothelin receptor B (ET-B) were studied by semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction. Protein amounts of the receptors were investigated by slot-blot analysis. mRNA amounts of pro-ET-1 were increased (+40%; P = 0.002) only in AF patients with underlying valve disease. ET-A and ET-B receptor protein amounts were significantly reduced in patients with paroxysmal AF (-39% and -47%, respectively) and persistent AF with underlying valve disease (-28% and -30%, respectively) and in persistent AF without valve disease (-20% and -40%, respectively). ET-A mRNA expression was unaltered in paroxysmal and persistent AF, whereas ET-B mRNA was reduced by 30% in persistent AF with (P < 0.001) or without (P = 0.04) valve disease, but unchanged in paroxysmal AF. CONCLUSION: Substantial changes in gene expression of the endothelin system were observed in human atria during AF, especially in the presence of underlying valve disease. Alterations in endothelin expression associated with AF could play a role in the pathophysiology of AF and the progression of underlying heart disease. 相似文献

Background: Left atrial (LA) linear lesions are effective in substrate modification for atrial fibrillation (AF). However, achievement of complete conduction block remains challenging and conduction recovery is commonly observed. The aim of the study was to investigate the localization of gap sites of recovered LA linear lesions.
Methods and Results: Forty-eight patients with paroxysmal (n = 26) and persistent/permanent (n = 22) AF underwent repeat ablation after pulmonary vein (PV) isolation and LA linear ablation at the LA roof and/or mitral isthmus due to recurrences of AF or flutter. In 35 patients, conduction through the mitral isthmus line (ML) had recovered whereas roof-line recovery was observed in 30 patients. The gaps within the ML were distributed to the junction between left inferior PV and left atrial appendage in 66%, the middle part of the ML in 20%, and in 8% to the endocardial aspect of the ML while only 6% of lines showed an epicardial site of recovery. The RL predominantly recovered close to the right superior PV (54%) and less frequently in the mid roof or close to the left PV (both 23%). Reablation of lines required significantly shorter RF durations (ML: 7.24 ± 5.55 minutes vs 24.08 ± 9.38 minutes, RL: 4.24 ± 2.34 minutes vs 11.54 ± 6.49 minutes; P = 0.0001). Patients with persistent/permanent AF demonstrated a significantly longer conduction delay circumventing the complete lines than patients with paroxysmal AF (228 ± 77 ms vs 164 ± 36 ms, P = 0.001).
Conclusions: Gaps in recovered LA lines were predominantly located close to the PVs where catheter stability is often difficult to achieve. Shorter RF durations are required for reablation of recovered linear lesions. Conduction times around complete LA lines are significantly longer in patients with persistent/permanent AF as compared to patients with paroxysmal AF. 相似文献

Atrial fibrillation is the most common cardiac arrhythmia with typical complications of thromboembolisms. The autonomic nervous system is an important factor for the initiation of arrhythmias. A vagally or adrenergically hyperfunction could cause the initiation of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). METHOD: We measured the chemoreflexsensitivity (CHRS) among 110 patients to determine a disturbed autonomic function as risk factor for PAF. We examined 45 patients with PAF (group A), 45 patients with sinus rhythm (group B) and 20 young volunteers (group C). The ratio between the difference of RR intervals in ECG and venous pO(2) was measured for the determination of CHRS. The margin of the CHRS was 3 ms/mmHg. RESULTS: Patients of group A had a significantly lower CHRS compared to group B (1.56+/-1.46 vs 6.29+/-3.71 ms/mmHg, p<0.0008) or group C (1.56+/-1.46 vs 6.35+/-4.29 ms/ mmHg, p<0.0003). A significant difference between group B and C could not be observed (6.29+/-3.71 vs. 6.35+/-4.29 ms/mmHg, p = n.s.). A specificity of 74% and a sensitivity of 71% was achieved for identifying patients with PAF by using a margin of 3 ms/mmHg for the CHRS. CONCLUSIONS: An analysis of CHRS seems to be an appropriate method to demonstrate a neurovegetative imbalance which might be one possible trigger mechanism of PAF. The predictive power has to be examined by prospective investigations of a larger patient population. 相似文献

Background: Complex fractionated atrial electrograms (CFAEs) may play a role in the genesis of atrial fibrillation (AF). One type of CFAE is continuous electrical activity (CEA). The prevalence and characteristics of CEA in patients with paroxysmal and persistent AF are unclear.
Methods and Results: In 44 patients (age = 59 ± 8 years) with paroxysmal (25) or persistent (19) AF, bipolar electrograms were systematically recorded for ≥5 seconds at 24 left atrial (LA) sites, including 8 antral sites, and 2 sites within the coronary sinus (CS). CEA was defined as continuous depolarization for > 1 second with no isoelectric interval. CEA was recorded at the LA septum (79%), antrum (66%), posterior (68%) and anterior walls (67%), roof (66%), base of the LA appendage (61%), inferior wall (61%), posterior mitral annulus (48%), CS (41%), and in the LA appendage (14%). Antral CEA was equally prevalent in patients with paroxysmal (63%) and persistent AF (70%, P = 0.12). In patients with paroxysmal AF, the prevalence of CEA was similar among antral and nonantral LA sites, except for the LA appendage. However, in patients with persistent AF, CEA was more prevalent at the nonantral (80%) than antral sites (70%, P = 0.03). CEA at nonantral sites except the CS was more prevalent in persistent than in paroxysmal AF (80% vs 57%, P < 0.001). The mean duration of intermittent episodes of CEA was longer in persistent than in paroxysmal AF (P < 0.001).
Conclusions: The higher prevalence and duration of CEA at nonantral sites in persistent than in paroxysmal AF is consistent with a greater contribution of LA reentrant mechanisms in persistent AF. However, the high prevalence of CEA at nonantral sites in paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) suggests that CEA alone is a nonspecific marker of appropriate target sites for ablation of AF. The characteristics of CEA that most accurately identify drivers of AF remain to be determined. 相似文献

Hypercholesterolemia is a major risk factor for coronary heart disease (CHD), but the associations among lipids, lipoproteins and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) have not yet been reported. The associations among lipids, lipoproteins and PAF were examined in a case-control study, in which cases and controls were defined as those with/without definite ECG-detectable PAF, respectively. CHD patients were excluded from the study. The mean values of serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG) and high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), after adjusting for age and gender, in patients with PAF were lower than those in patients without PAF (175 +/- 4 mg/dl vs. 190 +/- 3 mg/dl, 104 +/- 7 mg/dl vs. 123 +/- 6 mg/dl, 46.0 +/- 1.7 mg/dl vs. 51.8 +/- 1.4 mg/dl, respectively), as assessed by an analysis of covariance. After controlling for age and gender, TC, TG and HDL-C (all in quartiles) were inversely and linearly (p < 0.05) associated with the percentage of patients with PAF, as assessed by a multiple logistic regression analysis. The associations between TC or TG and PAF varied with the HDL-C level: significant when HDL-C was low (p < 0.05), but not when HDL-C was high. The odds ratio (relative risk of PAF) for patients with both low TC or TG and low HDL-C was 4.08 (95% CI: 1.81-9.57) times or 9. 40 (3.25-32.0) times higher (p < 0.01) than that for patients with high TC or TG and high HDL-C, respectively. In conclusion, low serum levels of TC and TG were found in PAF patients, while reduced HDL-C may cause PAF. Hypolipoproteinemia including low HDL-C may affect atrial vulnerability and cause atrial fibrillation. 相似文献

PurposeThis study aims to develop a noninvasive atrial remodeling index (RI) to separate patients presenting paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (ParAF) from those with sustained persistent atrial fibrillation (PerAF), that is, AF episodes interrupted 7 days or more after the onset.MethodsSignal-averaged P-wave duration (SAPWd) and left atrial anteroposterior diameter (LADd) were measured in 33 ParAF patients, in 26 sustained PerAF patients, and in 18 control subjects. By using SAPWd and LADd, a dichotomous (0/1) RI was created. A logistic regression model on the probability of having a sustained PerAF vs a ParAF episode was estimated, including the RI, sex, age, and cardiac comorbidities as covariates.ResultsSignal-averaged P-wave duration was significantly longer in sustained PerAF (153 ± 15 milliseconds) than in ParAF patients (142 ± 13 milliseconds, P < .001) and in both ParAF and sustained PerAF groups vs control group (123 ± 7 milliseconds, P < .001). Left atrial anteroposterior diameter was larger both in sustained PerAF (43 ± 6 mm) vs ParAF patients (38 ± 5 mm, P = .002) and in sustained PerAF group vs control group (38 ± 2 mm, P = .004), but no differences were observed between ParAF patients and controls (P = .6). A 12-fold increase (odds ratio, 11.8; 95% confidence interval, 2.2-63.5) in the odds of having a sustained PerAF vs a ParAF episode was observed in patients with RI equal to 1.ConclusionsP-wave duration and left atrium diameter enabled to define a noninvasive atrial RI to separate patients with ParAF from those with sustained PerAF. This could be a useful tool to select a suitable strategy for AF treatment. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Suppression by antiarrhythmic drugs of the maintenance mechanisms could convert persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) to sinus rhythm (SR). Whether a history of drug-resistant paroxysmal AF (PAF) would affect the outcome of pharmacological conversion of persistent AF by bepridil or in combination with aprindine was evaluated in the present study. METHODS AND RESULTS: The study group comprised 51 consecutive patients (24 men, 61+/-8 years) undergoing pharmacological conversion of persistent AF lasting >1 month. Drug-resistant PAF was defined as AF and at least 2 ineffective antiarrhythmic drugs for suppression of AF recurrence. Fast Fourier transform analysis of fibrillation waves was used to measure fibrillation cycle length (FCL) from the peak frequency. Fifteen patients had a history of drug-resistant PAF (Group I), and the remaining 36 did not (Group II) before diagnosis of persistent AF. Ten patients (67%) in Group I and 26 patients (72%) in Group II were restored to SR by bepridil alone or in combination with aprindine after 29+/-15 days of drug administration. Before conversion to SR, bepridil increased the FCL more in Group II than in Group I. During a 12-month follow-up period, 4 of 10 patients in Group I and 2 of 26 patients in Group II (p<0.01) had recurrence of persistent AF with bepridil alone or in combination with aprindine. CONCLUSIONS: A history of drug-resistant PAF does not affect the efficacy of pharmacological conversion by bepridil or in combination with aprindine. However, recurrence of AF was significantly higher in patients with such a history. 相似文献

To study the role of the dispersion of atrial repolarization (DAR) in the genesis of atrial fibrillation (AF), monophasic action potentials (MAP) were recorded simultaneously from a catheter at the high lateral right atrium (HLRA) and a catheter moving around the high, middle and low lateral right atrium (RA) the high, anterior and posterior septal RA and the RA appendage in 15 patients with paroxysmal AF and 15 patients with atrioventricular nodal re-entry tachycardia (AVNRT) or concealed Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW) without history of AF. After recordings during sinus rhythm (SR), MAPs were recorded during programmed stimulation (PS) via the HLRA catheter at a drive cycle length (CL) of 500 ms. Thus, MAPs were recorded simultaneously from 2 sites at a time and sequentially from 4 to 12 sites during SR, drive pacing and PS. Taking the MAP at the HLRA as reference, the dispersion of repolarization time (dispersion of RT) and its two components, the dispersions of activation time (dispersion of AT) and MAP duration (dispersion of MAP duration) among the 4 to 12 sites were calculated and taken as parameters of DAR. RESULTS: During SR and PS, the maximal dispersion of RT was significantly greater in AF than in control patients, 113+/-49 ms vs 50+/-28 ms (P<0.001) and 114+/-56 vs 70+/-43 ms (P<0.05) respectively. The increased dispersion of RT in the AF group was caused by increases in both dispersion of MAP duration and dispersion of AT. CONCLUSION: During SR and PS, DAR increased in patients with paroxysmal AF due to increases in dispersion of MAP duration and dispersion of AT, which suggests the involvement of both repolarization and conduction disturbances in the development of paroxysmal AF. 相似文献
