| Abstract | Detailed endocardial catheter mapping to explore cardiac activation patterns is usually carried out with the use of single point catheters. This method suffers from long procedural times and non-optimal resolution due to the limited number of electrodes. In order to localize endocardial electrical activation accurately, multipolar electrode catheter mapping with improved resolution is mandatory. A total of 9 sheep were studied with a newly developed, basket shaped, 8.5 F high-density multipolar catheter consisting of 8 equidistant, collapsible metallic arms, each containing 4 bipolar electrodes. Three of the arms contain radiopaque markers at different levels to determine the spatial orientation of the basket when deployed in the left ventricle. The mapping catheter, integrated with a newly developed computerized mapping system, could be successfully inserted and deployed in all sheep within 15 minutes and without hemodynamic interference. The latter was demonstrated by measuring left ventricular function before and after basket insertion with the use of a conductance catheter. Appropriate electrode-endocardial contact was demonstrated by successful bipolar pacing (2 and 5 mA) in 88% of the electrodes. High quality electrograms were obtained from 29 of the 32 mapping electrodes. Color-coded activation maps were reconstructed during both sinus rhythm and pacing. Postmortem examination of the hearts revealed no catheter-induced trauma. The novel basket shaped multi-electrode catheter facilitates safe, first and accurate endocardial mapping of electrical activity in the left ventricle during sinus rhythm and during pacing in a sheep model. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
