Abstract

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the results of radiofrequency catheter ablation for idiopathic premature ventricular complexes (PVC) in Hanoi medical university hospital (Hanoi). Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study conducted on 122 patients diagnosed with idiopathic premature ventricular complexes at Hanoi Medical University Hospital from January 2021 to April 2023. Results: The most frequent sites of origin were in right ventricular outflow tract (69,7%) and left coronary sinus of valsalva (6,6%). The acute ablation success was 95,08%; recurrence rate after 1 month was 15,6% (19/122); failure rate was 4,9% (6/122), mainly related to the site of origin in parahisian (4/6 case). The complication rate was 7,4% (most complications were mild and were related to vascular access). Conclusions: Radiofrequency catheter ablation of PVC is safe and results in high success rate, this approach should be widely applied in accordance with current guidelines
