Abstract:Objective: To compare the clinical effects and safety of radiofrequency catheter ablation under pressure monitoring and pressure-independent radiofrequency catheter ablation in the treatment of right ventricular outflow tract ventricular arrhythmias(RVOT-VAs). Methods: From June 2016 to March 2021, 309 patients with RVOT-VAs scheduled to be treated with radiofrequency ablation were selected and randomly divided into pressure group (n=167) and non-pressure group (n=142). Patients in the pressure group underwent high-power ThermoCool SmartTouch catheter radiofrequency ablation under pressure monitoring, while patients in the non-pressure group underwent NaviStar ThermoCool saline-irrigated catheter radiofrequency ablation. The operation indicators, success rate of ablation, postoperative complications and recurrence rate were compared between the two groups. Results: The operation time, ablation discharge time and X-ray exposure time of the pressure group were significantly shorter than those of the control group, and the number of invalid discharges was significantly smaller than that of the control group(P<0.05). The success rate of ablation after operation in the pressure group was higher than that in the non-pressure group (P<0.05). After operation, the total incidence of complications, recurrence rate and re-ablation rate in the pressure group were lower than those in the non-pressure group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Radiofrequency catheter ablation under pressure monitoring reveals good clinical effects in the treatment of RVOT-VAs. It can significantly shorten the operation time, ablation discharge time and X-ray exposure time, with a lower incidence of postoperative complications and a lower recurrence rate. The success rate and safety of long-term ablation are better than pressure-independent radiofrequency catheter ablation.
