Abstract

BackgroundView into Ventricular Onset (VIVO) is a novel ECGI system that uses 3D body surface imaging, myocardial CT/MRI, and 12‑lead ECG to localize earliest ventricular activation through analysis of simulated and clinical vector cardiograms. ObjectiveTo evaluate the accuracy of VIVO for the localization of ventricular arrhythmias (VA). MethodsIn twenty patients presenting for catheter ablation of VT [8] or PVC [12], VIVO was used to predict the site earliest activation using 12‑lead ECG of the VA. Results were compared to invasive electroanatomic mapping (EAM). ResultsA total of 22 PVC/VT morphologies were analyzed using VIVO. VIVO accurately predicted the location of the VA in 11/13 PVC cases and 8/9 VT cases. VIVO correctly predicted right vs left ventricular foci in 20/22 cases. ConclusionView into Ventricular Onset (VIVO) can accurately predict earliest activation of VA, which could aid in catheter ablation, and should be studied further.
