RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The study objectives were to report on a growing experience of conduction system mapping during complex congenital heart surgery and create a predictive model of conduction anatomy. METHODS: Patients undergoing complex cardiac repair with conduction mapping were studied. Intraoperative mapping used a multielectrode catheter to collect His bundle electrograms in the open, decompressed, beating heart. Patient anatomy, operative details, His bundle location, and postoperative conduction status were analyzed. By using classification and regression tree analysis, a predictive model of conduction location was created. RESULTS: A total of 109 patients underwent mapping. Median age and weight were 1.8 years (range, 0.2-14.9) and 10.8 kg (range, 3.5-50.4), respectively. Conduction was identified in 96% (105/109). Median mapping time was 6 minutes (range, 2-33). Anatomy included atrioventricular canal defect, double outlet right ventricle, complex transposition of the great arteries, and multiple ventricular septal defects. By classification and regression tree analysis, ventricular looping and visceroatrial situs were the greatest discriminators of conduction location. A total of 94 of 105 patients (89.5%) were free of complete heart block. Only 1 patient (2.9%) with heterotaxy syndrome developed complete heart block. CONCLUSIONS: The precise anatomic location of the conduction system in patients with complex congenital heart defects can be difficult for the surgeon to accurately predict. Intraoperative conduction mapping enables localization of the His bundle and adds to our understanding of the anatomic factors associated with conduction location. Predictive modeling of conduction anatomy may build on what is already known about the conduction system and help surgeons to better anticipate conduction location preoperatively and intraoperatively.

RESUMO

Objective: Postoperative heart block is a significant problem in congenital heart surgery because of the unpredictability and variability of conduction tissue location in complex congenital heart defects. A novel technique for intraoperative conduction system mapping during complex congenital heart surgery is described. Methods: Intraoperative conduction system mapping was performed utilizing a high-density multielectrode grid catheter to collect intracardiac electrograms on open, beating hearts during repair of complex congenital heart defects. Electrograms were interpreted by electrophysiologists, and conduction tissue location was communicated in real time to the surgeon. After localizing conduction tissue, the heart was arrested and the repair was completed taking care to avoid injury to the mapped conduction system. Results: Two patients with complex heterotaxy syndrome underwent intraoperative conduction mapping during biventricular repair. Mapping accurately identified the location of conduction tissue thereby enabling avoidance of conduction system injury during surgery. Notably, conduction was unexpectedly found to be located inferiorly in a patient with L-looped ventricles. Successful biventricular repair was accomplished in both patients without injury to the conduction system. Conclusions: Intraoperative conduction mapping can effectively localize the conduction system during surgery and enable the surgeon to avoid its injury. This can lower the risk of heart block requiring pacemaker in children undergoing complex congenital heart surgery.
