Cryoablation of stellate ganglia and atrial arrhythmia in ambulatory dogs with pacing-induced heart failure

Abstract: Objective-The purpose of the present study is to test the hypothesis that stellate ganglia ablation can reduce the incidences of atrial arrhythmias in a canine model of pacing-induced heart failure (HF).Background-There is an association between autonomic nerve discharges and atrial arrhythmias (including both bradycardia and tachycardia) in ambulatory dogs with pacing-induced HF.

“…In animal models, this approach has been shown to abolish episodes of atrial tachyarrhythmias. 47,48 These findings argue that the ablation of extrinsic cardiac nerves might be an effective alternative therapy to the ablation of intrinsic cardiac ganglia for the treatment of AF. 12 An area gaining clinical interest is renal denervation.…”

“…The results showed the feasibility of chronic cardiac nerve recordings and demonstrated a circadian variation of sympathetic outflow to the heart. 46 Multiple subsequent studies 30,[47][48][49][50][51] with direct nerve activity recordings in diseased animal models have provided insights into the understanding of the role of cardiac ANS in arrhythmogenesis.…”

“…[4][5][6] Modulation of the autonomic nervous system by several strategies like ganglion stellatum ablation, 7 high thoracic epidural anesthesia, 8 low level vagal nerve stimulation, 9 or ablation of ganglionated plexi 10 has been shown to attenuate the development of electric, autonomic, and structural atrial remodeling during AF. Another strategy to influence sympathetic nervous system activity is renal denervation (RDN).…”

“…[8][9][10] However, to the best of our knowledge, the effect of sympathetic nerve activity on vulnerability to atrial arrhythmia in PAH has not been evaluated. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that the activity of intrinsic and extrinsic cardiac nerves has an important role in vulnerability to atrial arrhythmia in a model of PAH.…”
