Feasibility of novel VT mapping and ablation techniques shown; leaves open outcome improvement pending randomized trials.
Do novel mapping and ablation techniques (non-invasive mapping, Ripple Mapping, robotic ablation) improve the identification of VT sources and ablation outcomes in patients with ventricular tachycardia?
Novel mapping techniques like Ripple Mapping and non-invasive ECG mapping, along with robotic ablation, show feasibility and potential to improve the identification of VT substrates and ablation outcomes.
Shahnaz Jamil‐Copley (2014) studied Ventricular Tachycardia. Novel mapping and ablation techniques (e.g., Ripple Mapping, robotic ablation) vs. Conventional algorithms, manual ablation, or conservative management was evaluated. Novel techniques for mapping and ablating ventricular tachycardia, including Ripple Mapping and robotic ablation, demonstrated feasibility and are now being evaluated in prospective randomized studies.
