Abstract

Collateral damage to the vagal nerve and the upper gastrointestinal (UGI) system during atrial fibrillation ablation has not been systematically evaluated. We performed a prospective, observational study assessing the effect of atrial fibrillation ablation on the function of the vagus nerve/UGI system. All patients underwent esophageal manometry, gastric emptying study, and sham-feeding test (corresponding to esophageal, gastric, and small intestinal function evaluation, respectively) before ablation (baseline) and subsequently at 24 hours, 90 days, and 180 days after the procedure. In addition, UGI symptom assessment using the patient assessment of upper gastrointestinal disorders-symptom severity index (PAGI-SYM) questionnaire was performed at baseline and during each of the subsequent evaluations. Of the 27 patients enrolled in the study, 9 (33%) patients had abnormal UGI function at baseline; defined as at least one of the 3 abnormal tests. At 24 hours after the radiofrequency catheter ablation, 20 (74%) patients had at least 1 new abnormality on the UGI function tests (P<0.001). New onset esophageal dysmotility, delayed gastric emptying time, and abnormal sham-feeding tests were observed in 13 (48%), 13 (48%), and 9 (33%) ...Continue Reading

Atrial Filbrillation

Atrial fibrillation refers to the abnormal heart rhythm characterized by rapid and irregular beating of the atria. Here is the latest research.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.
