Key result
Cardioneuroablation linked to ~95% freedom from recurrent syncope or bradycardia in functional bradyarrhythmia patients.
Why the study?
Cardioinhibitory syncope recurrences significantly impair quality of life and can cause severe trauma, while pharmacological and conservative non-pharmacological therapies are largely ineffective.
Observational (n=20)
No

May support use in functional bradyarrhythmias; hypothesis-generating and leaves open need for randomized confirmation.

Bulava et al. (2020) conducted an observational in Functional bradyarrhythmias (cardioinhibitory reflex syncope and parasympathetically induced bradycardias) (n=20). Cardioneuroablation (radiofrequency catheter ablation) was evaluated on Absence of syncope or bradycardia during follow-up. Cardioneuroablation successfully prevented the recurrence of syncope or bradycardia in 95% of patients with functional bradyarrhythmias over a mean follow-up of 424 days.
