Cryoballoon ablation is an established catheter-based approach to treat atrial fibrillation (AF). However, thromboembolic events cannot be avoided during cryoablation. There is little data regarding the blood coagulation status during freezing.The thrombin antithrombin complex (TAT) and prothrombin fragment 1+2 (F 1+2) of patient blood were measured during cryoballoon application when the cryoballoon temperature reached the nadir in 63 AF patients. TAT was also measured from porcine blood during cryoballoon freezing in 5 pigs.The TAT and F 1+2 increased from 6.60 +/- 5.65 to 9.16 +/- 7.28 ng/mL (P = 0.004) and from 279.6 +/- 146.4 to 323.6 +/- 169.1 pmol/L (P = 0.003) between the control and during freezing, respectively. The TAT increased from 0.46 to 0.87 ng/mL during freezing compared to that of pre-freezing (P < 0.05), and it returned to 0.39 ng/mL in 30 minutes after an intravenous edoxaban administration (N.S.).Dabigatran failed to exert sufficient anticoagulant effects during cryofreezing. In contrast, intravenous edoxaban seemed to provoke anticoagulation effects under extreme low temperature circumstances.
