Why the study?
Does mapping and ablation eliminate dominant triggers in primary idiopathic ventricular fibrillation?
Does mapping and ablation eliminate dominant triggers in primary idiopathic ventricular fibrillation?
Focal ablation is a viable strategy for eliminating Purkinje system triggers in idiopathic ventricular fibrillation.
Supports Purkinje-targeted ablation in idiopathic VF; leaves open need for prospective trials before practice change.
Primary idiopathic ventricular fibrillation is a syndrome characterized by dominant triggers from the distal Purkinje system. These sources can be eliminated by focal energy delivery.
