ABSTRACT
AIMS:
The standard deviation of activation time (SDAT) derived from body surface maps (BSMs) has been proposed as an optimal measure of electrical dyssynchrony in patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). The goal of this study was two-fold (i) to compare the values of SDAT in individual CRT patients with reconstructed myocardial metrics of depolarization heterogeneity using an inverse solution algorithm and (ii) to compare SDAT calculated from 96-lead BSM with a clinically easily applicable 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG). METHODS ANDRESULTS:
Cardiac resynchronization therapy patients with sinus rhythm and left bundle branch block at baseline (n = 19, 58% males, age 60 ± 11 years, New York Heart Association Classes II and III, QRS 167 ± 16) were studied using a 96-lead BSM. The activation time (AT) was automatically detected for each ECG lead, and SDAT was calculated using either 96 leads or standard 12 leads. Standard deviation of activation time was assessed in sinus rhythm and during six different pacing modes, including atrial pacing, sequential left or right ventricular, and biventricular pacing. Changes in SDAT calculated both from BSM and from 12-lead ECG corresponded to changes in reconstructed myocardial ATs. A high degree of reliability was found between SDAT values obtained from 12-lead ECG and BSM for different pacing modes, and the intraclass correlation coefficient varied between 0.78 and 0.96 (P < 0.001).CONCLUSION:
Standard deviation of activation time measurement from BSM correlated with reconstructed myocardial ATs, supporting its utility in the assessment of electrical dyssynchrony in CRT. Importantly, 12-lead ECG provided similar information as BSM. Further prospective studies are necessary to verify the clinical utility of SDAT from 12-lead ECG in larger patient cohorts, including those with ischaemic cardiomyopathy.Palavras-chave
