Characterization of Electrograms from Multipolar Diagnostic Catheters during Atrial Fibrillation

<div>This diagram illustrates the FAB and TCD calculations for the electrograms recorded using an MPDC. Bipole 6 is the FAB and TCD is 94 ms, which is the sum of <svg height="12.4339pt" id="M18" style="vertical-align:-3.31356pt" version="1.1" viewbox="-0.0498162 -9.12034 24.2722 12.4339" width="24.2722pt" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"><g transform="matrix(.0135,0,0,-0.0135,0,0)"><path d="M614 175C564 76 510 21 408 21C256 21 146 149 146 336C146 488 235 629 402 629C510 629 570 586 597 480L626 488C620 541 614 582 606 638C578 643 510 665 429 665C206 665 44 527 44 316C44 157 153 -15 402 -15C474 -15 558 5 586 11C604 45 629 119 643 165L614 175Z" id="g190-68"></path><glyph.data ascent="989" descent="-360" horiz-adv-x="665" vert-adv-y="665"></glyph.data></g><g transform="matrix(.0135,0,0,-0.0135,9.01,0)"><path d="M43 650V622C120 616 128 612 128 526V124C128 39 120 33 34 27V0H270C392 0 492 25 567 83C643 141 690 230 690 350C690 444 655 517 605 565C543 625 450 650 323 650H43ZM213 547C213 587 217 598 226 604C236 612 262 617 304 617C371 617 429 604 474 576C554 529 592 439 592 336C592 176 505 36 319 36C246 36 213 55 213 131V547Z" id="g190-69"></path><glyph.data ascent="989" descent="-360" horiz-adv-x="735" vert-adv-y="735"></glyph.data></g><g transform="matrix(.0095,0,0,-0.0095,19.039,3.264)"><path d="M389 0V32C297 38 291 46 291 118V635C234 613 175 595 109 583V556L161 554C203 552 207 547 207 497V118C207 46 201 38 110 32V0H389Z" id="g50-50"></path><glyph.data ascent="3443" descent="-2856" horiz-adv-x="487" vert-adv-y="487"></glyph.data></g></svg> to <svg height="12.5481pt" id="M19" style="vertical-align:-3.42776pt" version="1.1" viewbox="-0.0498162 -9.12034 28.9081 12.5481" width="28.9081pt" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"><g transform="matrix(.0135,0,0,-0.0135,0,0)"><path d="M614 175C564 76 510 21 408 21C256 21 146 149 146 336C146 488 235 629 402 629C510 629 570 586 597 480L626 488C620 541 614 582 606 638C578 643 510 665 429 665C206 665 44 527 44 316C44 157 153 -15 402 -15C474 -15 558 5 586 11C604 45 629 119 643 165L614 175Z" id="g190-68"></path><glyph.data ascent="989" descent="-360" horiz-adv-x="665" vert-adv-y="665"></glyph.data></g><g transform="matrix(.0135,0,0,-0.0135,9.01,0)"><path d="M43 650V622C120 616 128 612 128 526V124C128 39 120 33 34 27V0H270C392 0 492 25 567 83C643 141 690 230 690 350C690 444 655 517 605 565C543 625 450 650 323 650H43ZM213 547C213 587 217 598 226 604C236 612 262 617 304 617C371 617 429 604 474 576C554 529 592 439 592 336C592 176 505 36 319 36C246 36 213 55 213 131V547Z" id="g190-69"></path><glyph.data ascent="989" descent="-360" horiz-adv-x="735" vert-adv-y="735"></glyph.data></g><g transform="matrix(.0095,0,0,-0.0095,19.039,3.264)"><path d="M389 0V32C297 38 291 46 291 118V635C234 613 175 595 109 583V556L161 554C203 552 207 547 207 497V118C207 46 201 38 110 32V0H389Z" id="g50-50"></path><glyph.data ascent="3443" descent="-2856" horiz-adv-x="487" vert-adv-y="487"></glyph.data></g><g transform="matrix(.0095,0,0,-0.0095,23.657,3.264)"><path d="M245 635C92 635 37 457 37 312C37 149 91 -12 244 -12C395 -12 449 166 449 312C449 469 395 635 245 635ZM243 598C332 598 358 454 358 312C358 173 334 26 245 26C158 26 128 174 128 313S152 598 243 598Z" id="g50-49"></path><glyph.data ascent="3443" descent="-2856" horiz-adv-x="487" vert-adv-y="487"></glyph.data></g></svg>.
