Novel spatiotemporal processing tools for body-surface potential map signals for the prediction of catheter ablation outcome in persistent atrial fibrillation

Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca, Etienne Pruvot

Background: Signal processing tools are required to efficiently analyze data collected in body-surface-potential map (BSPM) recordings. A limited number of such tools exist for studying persistent atrial fibrillation (persAF). We propose two novel, spatiot ...

Evaluation and optimization of novel extraction algorithms for the automatic detection of atrial activations recorded within the pulmonary veins during atrial fibrillation

Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca, Yann Prudat, Sasan Yazdani, Etienne Pruvot

Background and objective The automated detection of atrial activations (AAs) recorded from intracardiac electrograms (IEGMs) during atrial fibrillation (AF) is challenging considering their various amplitudes, morphologies and cycle length. Activation time ...

ECG-Based Indices to Characterize Persistent Atrial Fibrillation Before and During Stepwise Catheter Ablation

Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca, Etienne Pruvot

Background: Consistently successful patient outcomes following catheter ablation (CA) for treatment of persistent atrial fibrillation (pers-AF) remain elusive. We propose an electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis designed to (1) refine selection of patients most ...

Dynamics of Intraprocedural Dominant Frequency Identifies Ablation Outcome in Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca, Andréa Buttu, Etienne Pruvot, Alain Pithon

Background: The role of dominant frequency (DF) in tracking the efficiency of a stepwise catheter ablation (step-CA) in persistent atrial fibrillation (peAF) remains poorly studied. We hypothesized that the DF time-course during step-CA displays divergent ...

Ventricular response regularity in atrial fibrillation and its relationship to successful catheter ablation

Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca, Etienne Pruvot

Atrial rate is known to modulate ventricular response during atrial fibrillation (AF). The resulting pulse irregularity translates into widely varying inter-beat intervals (IBIs) extracted from recorded surface electrocardiogram (ECG) activity. In AF, the ...

Severe and uniform bi-atrial remodeling measured by dominant frequency analysis in persistent atrial fibrillation unresponsive to ablation

Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca, Andréa Buttu, Etienne Pruvot

Background High values of ECG and intracardiac dominant frequency (DF) are indicative of significant atrial remodeling in persistent atrial fibrillation (peAF). We hypothesized that patients with peAF unresponsive to ablation display higher ECG and intraca ...

Can one detect atrial fibrillation using a wrist-type photoplethysmographic device?

Jean-Marc Vesin, Célestin Leupi, Mathieu Lemay, Sibylle Fallet, Etienne Pruvot, Philippe Renevey

This study aims at evaluating the potential of a wrist-type photoplethysmographic (PPG) device to discriminate between atrial fibrillation (AF) and other types of rhythm. Data from 17 patients undergoing catheter ablation of various arrhythmias were proces ...

A Non-linear Filter to Detect Atrial Activation from Intracardiac Electrograms

Jean-Marc Vesin, Sasan Yazdani, Andréa Buttu, Etienne Pruvot

Atrial activation (AA) detection during atrial fibrillation (AF) can be considered as a first step in estimating AF characteristics such as the AF cycle length. The detection of AA from intracardiac electrograms (EGM) remains challenging due to the constan ...
