Background: High-power short-duration (HPSD) ablation may improve the consistency and efficiency of pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). The novel QDOT Micro™ catheter (Biosense Webster, Inc.) with temperature feedback and microelectrodes aims to enhance PVI efficiency and safety. This study wants to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and efficiency of a standardized single-catheter workflow for PVI using QDOT (Q-FLOW). Methods: The Q-FLOW includes single transeptal access, radiofrequency encircling of the PVs using a power of 50 W in a temperature/flow-controlled mode, and validation of the circles with microelectrodes. A 1:1 propensity-matched cohort of patients treated with conventional power-controlled ablation using a circular mapping catheter (CMC-FLOW) was used to compare procedural and clinical outcomes. Results: A total of 150 consecutive atrial fibrillation patients (paroxysmal 67%, persistent 33%) were included. First-pass isolation rate was 86%. Procedural time, X-ray time, and dose were significantly lower for the Q-FLOW vs the CMC-FLOW (67.2 ± 17.9 vs 88.3 ± 19.2 min, P < 0.001; 3.0 ± 1.9 vs 5.0 ± 2.4 min, P < 0.001; 4.3 ± 1.9 vs 6.4 ± 2.3 Gycm2, P < 0.001). Complications were numerically but not significantly lower in the Q-FLOW group (2 [1.3%] vs 7 [4.7%], P = 0.091). There was no difference in arrhythmia recurrence at 12 months (atrial arrhythmia-free survival rate, 87.5% vs 84.4%, P = 0.565). Conclusion: A streamlined single-catheter workflow for PVI using QDOT was feasible and safe, resulting in a high rate of first-pass isolation and a low complication rate. The Q-FLOW further improved the efficiency of PVI compared to the standard CMC-FLOW, without difference in the 12-month outcome. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
