In silico pace mapping identifies pacing sites more accurately than inverse body surface potential mapping
Authors' conclusion
In silico pace mapping is more accurate than ECGi in detecting paced activation. Performance was optimal when all BSPs were used and reduced during RV apical pacing.
Study context
- Population
- Patients with electrocardiographic imaging (ECGi) recordings during LV (endocardial n=5; epicardial n=1), septal and right ventricular (RV) apical pacingseptal 3 · RV apical 15
- Comparison
- In silico pace mapping vs ECGi for locating the pacing site
- Outcome
- Distance (d) between pacing electrode (ground truth) and the located site
