The value of QRS onset of the outflow tract PVC in V1 and V2 leads recorded in fourth, third, and second intercostal spaces to differentiate main origins of premature ventricular contraction—A prospective cohort study

Abstract Background Electrocardiography (ECG) is now proposed as a simple and cost‐effective tool to determine the location of arrhythmias before ablation. We aimed to examine the value of the QRS onset of outflow tract PVC in V1 and V2 leads recorded in fourth, third, and second intercostal spaces...

description Abstract Background Electrocardiography (ECG) is now proposed as a simple and cost‐effective tool to determine the location of arrhythmias before ablation. We aimed to examine the value of the QRS onset of outflow tract PVC in V1 and V2 leads recorded in fourth, third, and second intercostal spaces to differentiate two main origins for premature ventricular contraction (PVC) including right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT). Methods In this prospective cohort study, a total of 58 patients were studied, from whom a surface ECG was obtained using V1 and V2 leads in the fourth, third, and second intercostal spaces. ECG and Electrophysiology studie (EPS) data were then recorded and compared to determine the sensitivity and specificity of QRS onset in locating arrhythmias. The reciever operating characterictic (ROC) curve analysis was applied to test diagnostic performance. Results Based on the time of PVC initiation in each of the V1 and V2 leads in the fourth intercostal space, if PVC is recorded earlier in the V1 lead, its source in 95.8% of the patients is RVOT and if PVC preceded the V2 lead, 70.59% of the patients had PVC from LVOT. Comparing of QRS onset in V1 and V2 leadsrecorded from third% and and second intercostal spaces had considerable sensitivity and specificity to determine the origin of the outflow tract PVC (81.82 and 94.12%, respectively) Conclusion Simultaneous recording of outflow tract PVCs from second third and fourth intercostal spaces and comparing their onset can determine the left and right outflow tract PVCs with high sensitivity and specificity.
