Atrial cycle length during atrial fibrillation and flutter waves may be correlated with atrial refractoriness and organization. The nature of the frequency by spectral analysis may reflect a profile of atrial cycle length. In this study, we developed a novel body surface 2-dimensional spectral map during fibrillation using vector-projected 187 channel ECG (187ch VP-ECG).<br>The study consisted of 28 patients (24 with atrial fibrillation (AFIB) and 4 atrial flutter (AFL) with valvular heart disease). We performed spectral analysis by maximum entropy modeling (MEM) in 4 second nonaveraged 187ch electrical current waves by 187ch VP-ECG. Body surface spectral features were displayed according to the frequency and power magnitude components. We verified the accuracy of the spectral features by a 64ch magnetocardiography (MCG). <br>The average dominant frequency in AFL by 187ch VP-ECG was lower than those in AFIB (4.6 ± 0.9 Hz in AFL, 7.2 ± 0.9 Hz in AFIB, P < 0.01). Comparison of average dominant frequency between 187ch VP-ECG and 64 ch MCG demonstrated good agreement (y = 0.86x+0.84, r2 = 0.89, P < 0.0001). Body surface 2-dimensional spectral features demonstrated homogenous spectrum patterns in AFL, and in-homogenous spectrum patterns in AFIB.<br>In conclusion, novel body surface spectral mapping using 187ch VP-ECG may represent a 2-dimensional spectral feature that may be related to atrial refractoriness and organization.
