May aid VT ablation localization; leaves open prospective clinical validation before practice change.
Does a quantitative algorithm based on paced QRS integral maps accurately estimate the site of origin of ectopic ventricular beats?
A quantitative algorithm based on paced QRS integral maps and spatial coordinates can accurately estimate the origin of ectopic ventricular beats.
Latour et al. (2002) studied Ventricular tachycardia. Quantitative algorithm using paced QRS integral maps was evaluated on Estimation of required positions with an accuracy within the resolution of position measurements. A quantitative algorithm based on paced QRS integral maps estimated 71% of required catheter tip positions with an accuracy within the resolution of position measurements.
