Abstract Background: Idiopathic arrhythmias commonly arise from the septal right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT), sinuses of Valsalva (SoV), and great cardiac vein (GCV). Predicting the exact site of origin is important for preparation for catheter ablation.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the diagnostic value of noninvasive electroanatomic mapping (NIEAM) to differentiate between septal RVOT, SoV, and GCV origin and compare it to that of 12-lead electrocardiography (ECG).
Methods: NIEAM maps (CardioInsight, Medtronic) were generated during spontaneous ventricular premature depolarizations (VPDs) and threshold pacing from septal RVOT, SoV, and GCV. Origin prediction using NIEAM was compared to algorithmic ECG criteria (maximal deflection index; V
Results: Sixty NIEAMs (18 spontaneous VPDs and 42 pace-maps) from 31 patients (age 56 ± 16 years) were analyzed. NIEAM showed distinct conduction patterns, best visualized at the base of the heart: septal RVOT VPDs propagate toward the tricuspid annulus, depolarizing the septum from inferior to superior; SoV VPDs engage the superior septum early; and GCV VPDs move laterally along the mitral annulus, depolarizing the heart from left to right. Activation of the lateral mitral annulus >60.50 ms and the superior basal septum <22.5 ms from onset predicts RVOT and SoV origin, respectively, in 100% of cases. NIEAM was superior to maximum deflection index in predicting GCV origin (100% vs 42.2% accuracy) and superior to V
Conclusion: Arrhythmias arising from the outflow tracts follow distinct propagation patterns depending on the origin. A 2-step algorithm using activation timing by NIEAM yields 100% diagnostic accuracy in predicting origin.
