Abstract

The study of atrial fibrillation (AF) has been known as a hot topic of clinical concern. Body surface potential mapping (BSPM), a noninvasive electrical mapping technology, has been widely used in the study of AF. This study adopted 10 AF patients' preoperative and postoperative BSPM data (each patient's data contained 128 channels), and applied the autocorrelation function method to obtain the activation interval of the BSPM signals. The activation interval results were compared with that of manual counting method and the applicability of the autocorrelation function method was verified. Furthermore, we compared the autocorrelation function method with the commonly used fast Fourier transform (FFT) method. It was found that the autocorrelation function method was more accurate. Finally, to find a simple rule to predict the recurrence of atrial fibrillation, the autocorrelation function method was used to analyze the preoperative BSPM signals of 10 patients with persistent AF. Consequently, we found that if the patient's proportion of channels with dominant frequency larger than 2.5 Hz in the anterior left region is greater than the other three regions (the anterior right region, the posterior left region, and the posterior right region), he or she might have a higher possibility of AF recurrence. This study verified the rationality of the autocorrelation function method for rhythm analysis and concluded a simple rule of AF recurrence prediction based on this method.
