Abstract:
AT was mapped with Advisor HD Grid for earliest breakout site via local activation timing (LAT) map and Omnipolar map. While both maps point to earliest breakout site from low anterior right atrium, omnipolar map localised it to a more precise location compared to the earliest breakout site from LAT map. Ablation in this same spot rendered AT non inducible.

Cardiac Action Potential
The cardiac action potential process involves a series of phases characterized by the movement of ions across the cardiac cell membranes, leading to the depolarization and repolarization of the cardiac myocytes.
Ionic Basis of Cardiac Action Potentials
Correlation between ECG and Cardiac Cycle
A cardiac action potential originates in the SA node and spreads throughout the atria and the AV node in approximately 0.03 seconds. This results in the P wave in an ECG and triggers atrial contraction. The action potential is then briefly slowed at the AV node, allowing the atria to contract and fill the ventricles with blood before...
