Major findings
First, our study demonstrated that adjunctive EIVOM did not
statistically increased the acute success rate of MI ablation. EIVOM
significantly reduced the RF application time to complete MI block line;
however, the total fluoroscopy tended to be more in the EIVOM group than
in the RF group. Second, EIVOM did not reduce AF recurrence or AT
compared to the ablation performed by only RF. Third, MI durability was
similar between the RF and EIVOM/RF groups.
