Catheter Ablation: Evolution and Efficiencies

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The present review includes a discussion the goals and pitfalls of efficiency in the medical profession, a historical perspective on the evolution of catheter ablation in the field of electrophysiology (EP), and the data regarding the relationship between efficiency and outcomes in the EP lab. Focus on efficacy is critical to maximize resource

Non-valvular atrial fibrillation and stroke : implications for management [PDF]

, 1995
Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation is more prevalent with increasing age. It is associated with a six-fold excess risk of stroke; and a cumulative lifetime stroke risk of 35%. 15% of ischaemic strokes are directly attributable to it.

A Large, Real‐World Cohort Analysis of Arrhythmia Detection and Therapeutic Interventions in Patients With Insertable Cardiac Monitors and Long‐Term Monitoring

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ICM arrhythmia detection and therapeutic interventions. ABSTRACT Background Insertable cardiac monitors (ICMs) provide long‐term continuous monitoring for arrhythmia diagnosis and management for various clinical indications. However, little data exists on comprehensive real‐world arrhythmia diagnostic yield and therapy rates in patients indicated for ...

Inflammatory and Myocardial Biomarker Response Following Pulmonary Vein Isolation: Cryoballoon Versus Balloon‐in‐Basket Pulsed Field Ablation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cryoballoon ablation (CB) is a well‐established thermal technique for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), while balloon‐in‐basket pulsed field ablation (BiB‐PFA) represents a novel non‐thermal alternative. Both single‐shot systems may trigger systemic inflammation and myocardial injury, yet direct comparisons are lacking.

Acute Effects on Signal-Averaged Electrogram Parameters and Suppressing Premature Ventricular Contractions in Single or Combined Use of Class I Antiarrhythmic Drugs

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2006
Disopyramide (DP), mexiletine (MX), and flecainide (FL) are class I antiarrhythmic drugs. However, these drugs exert different effects on the electrocardiogram (ECG) based on their unique actions on cardiac myocytes.

Understanding Atrial Fibrillation Complexity Through the Lens of Turbulence Dynamics: Implications for Treatment Strategies

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. Its incidence increases significantly with age and has become a major global public health issue. Although research into the mechanisms of AF has spanned over a century‐ranging from the reentry theory to the rotor hypothesis‐none of these

SIDE EFFECTS OF PROLONGED ANTIARRHYTHMIC THERAPY WITH AMIODARONE

Клиническая практика, 2017
Atrial fibrillation is widespread in population. It determines extensive use of antiarrhythmic drugs such as amiodarone. Thyroid lesion is one of common side effects of this therapy. The article describes a clinical case of photosensitivity’s development

Predictors of Atrial High‐Rate Episodes and Inappropriate Device Therapy in Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) therapy can prevent sudden cardiac death, but poses a risk of inappropriate device therapy (IDT), which is linked to worse outcomes and reduced quality of life. On the other hand, ICDs can function as an early warning system for atrial arrhythmias.
