Influence of Clinical Parameters and Anticoagulation on Intraprocedural Cerebral Microembolic Signals during Pulmonary Vein Isolation
OBJECTIVE We had the objective to determine the impact of clinical parameters and anticoagulation status on cerebral microembolic signals (MES) during pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for atrial fibrillation (AF). BACKGROUND Thromboembolism and stroke are the most feared complications of PVI. MES can help to evaluate embolic burden. It is unknown whether clinical parameters have an impact on em...

متن کاملTranscranial measurement of cerebral microembolic signals during pulmonary vein isolation: a comparison of two ablation techniques.
BACKGROUND Pulmonary vein isolation has increasingly been used to cure atrial fibrillation, but concerns have recently been raised that subclinical brain damage may occur because of microembolization during these procedures. We compared the occurrence of bubble formation seen on intracardiac echocardiography and the microembolic signals (MESs) detected by transcranial Doppler on the use of diff...
متن کاملSuccessful intraprocedural anticoagulation with bivalirudin during pulmonary vein isolation in a patient with known heparin-induced thrombocytopenia type II
We report the case of a 56-year-old female who presented with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Anamnestic heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) type II was suspected, and a rapid diagnostic test showed antibodies against platelet factor 4. The heparin-induced platelet activation-assay was negative. Radiofrequency pulmonary vein isolation with intraprocedural anticoagulation using bi...
متن کاملAsymptomatic cerebral lesions during pulmonary vein isolation under uninterrupted oral anticoagulation.
AIMS Left atrial radiofrequency ablation has been shown to carry a risk of asymptomatic cerebral lesions. No data exist in patients under continued oral anticoagulation during the ablation procedure. The aim of this study was to quantify the amount of silent cerebral lesions assessed by pre-procedural and post-procedural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients under therapeutic internation...
