Key result
Pragmatic review details step-by-step cardioneuroablation for vasovagal syncope and functional AV block.
Why the study?
Catheter-based cardioneuroablation is increasingly utilized for vasovagal syncope and functional atrioventricular block, with growing convergence on patient selection, technical steps, and procedural end-points.
This review provides a pragmatic, step-by-step guide to performing cardioneuroablation for vasovagal syncope and functional atrioventricular block.
May aid procedural standardization for vasovagal syncope; leaves open need for randomized efficacy trials.
Catheter based cardioneuroablation is increasingly being utilized to improve outcomes in patients with vasovagal syncope and functional atrioventricular block. There is now increasing convergence amongst enthusiasts on its various aspects, including patient selection, technical steps, and procedural end-points. This pragmatic review aims to take the reader through a step-by-step approach to cardioneuroablation: we begin with a brief overview of the anatomy of intrinsic cardiac autonomic nervous system, before focusing on the indications, pre- and post-procedure management, necessary equipment, and its potential limitations.

Aksu et al. (2022) conducted a review in Vasovagal syncope and functional atrioventricular block. Cardioneuroablation was evaluated. This pragmatic review provides a step-by-step guide to cardioneuroablation for vasovagal syncope and functional atrioventricular block, covering anatomy, indications, and procedural steps.
