SIGNAL PROPAGATION IN HEART
1.
Stimulus originates in the SA
node and travels across the
walls of the atria, causing
them to contract.
2.
Stimulus arrives at the AV
node and travels along the AV
bundle
3.
Stimulus descends to the apex
of the heart through the
bundle branches
4.
After stimulus reaches the
Purkinje fibers, the ventricles
contract.

CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA

Cardiac arrhythmia is when the electrical activity of the
heart is irregular (faster/slower) than normal.
Tachycardia
(Fast Heartbeat)
Bradycardia
(Slow Heartbeat)
Ventricular Fibrillation

CARDIAC ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY (EP)

CONVENTIONAL EP MAPPING
 Point-by-point
mapping acquisition.
 Direct voltage mapping.
 Many Disadvantages:



Identification of areas of low voltage is timeconsuming catheter manipulation.
Focal lesion creation may not be sufficient to ablate
VT conduction through a broad isthmus region.
Identification breakthrough points may be
challenging.
5
NON-CONTACT MAPPING
 Catheter
of its own.
 Non-contact
mapping
uses unipolar Virtual
Electrograms (VE)

ELECTROGRAM
o Recording of cardiac potentials
from electrodes directly in contact
with the heart.

CONCLUSIONS

Presented electrographic parameters.

Morphologies of electrograms allowed the
discrimination of endo/epicardially paced activation.
Possibility of combination of the criteria will
improve the perception over any single criterion.
 Allow to detect tachycardia originating
epicardially using noncontact mapping.
