摘要
Cardioneuroablation (CNA) is a novel treatment for reflex syncope. The effect of aging on CNA efficacy is not fully understood.The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of aging on candidacy and efficacy of CNA for treating vasovagal syncope (VVS), carotid sinus syndrome (CSS), and functional bradyarrhythmia.The ELEGANCE (cardionEuroabLation: patiEnt selection, imaGe integrAtioN and outComEs) multicenter study assessed CNA in patients with reflex syncope or severe functional bradyarrhythmia. Patients underwent pre-CNA Holter electrocardiography (ECG), head-up tilt testing (HUT), and electrophysiological study. CNA candidacy and efficacy was assessed in 14 young (18-40 years), 26 middle-aged (41-60 years), and 20 older (>60 years) patients.Sixty patients (37 men; mean age 51 ± 16 years) underwent CNA. The majority (80%) had VVS, 8% had CSS, and 12% had functional bradycardia/atrioventricular block. Pre-CNA Holter ECG, HUT, and electrophysiological findings did not differ across age groups. Acute CNA success was 93%, without differences between age groups (P = .42). Post-CNA HUT response was negative in 53%, vasodepressor in 38%, cardioinhibitory in 7%, and mixed in 2%, without differences across age groups (P = .59). At follow-up (8 months, interquartile range 4-15), 53 patients (88%) were free of symptoms. Kaplan-Meier curves did not show differences in event-free survival between age groups (P = .29). The negative predictive value of a negative HUT was 91.7%.CNA is a viable treatment for reflex syncope and functional bradyarrhythmia in all ages, and is highly effective in mixed VVS. HUT is a key step in postablation clinical assessment.
