A decade of insertable cardiac monitors with remote monitoring in pediatric patients [PDF]

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Background: Remote monitoring-enabled insertable cardiac monitors (ICMs) are useful tools for arrhythmias and symptom management. This study sought to evaluate the outcome of ICM implantation in a large, heterogeneous cohort of pediatric and young ...

Mitral valve perforation after left lateral accessory pathway ablation: a case report

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2022
Background Radiofrequency catheter ablation is considered to be a relatively safe procedure. This is an unusual case report in which severe mitral regurgitation was occurred after left lateral accessory pathway radiofrequency catheter ablation.

Cycle length of nonsustanied ventricular tachycardias among ICD patients: implications on subsequent appropriate therapies

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background ICD patients with episodes of nonsustained ventricular tachycardias (NSVT) are at risk of appropriate therapies. However, the relationship between the cycle length (CL) of such NSVTs and the subsequent incidence of appropriate interventions is

Clinical Genetics of Inherited Arrhythmogenic Disease in the Pediatric Population

Biomedicines, 2022
Sudden death is a rare event in the pediatric population but with a social shock due to its presentation as the first symptom in previously healthy children. Comprehensive autopsy in pediatric cases identify an inconclusive cause in 40–50% of cases.

Determinants of the time-to-peak left ventricular dP/dt (Td) and QRS duration with different fusion strategies in cardiac resynchronization therapy

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundCardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is helpful in selected patients; however, responder rates rarely exceed 70%. Optimization of CRT may therefore benefit a large number of patients.

Zero-fluroscopy ablation for cardiac arrhythmias: A single-center experience in Mexico

Heart Vessels and Transplantation, 2023
Objective: Catheter ablation (CA) is a highly effective procedure for treating symptomatic tachyarrhythmias. However, the use of fluoroscopy, which is commonly employed in CA, exposes patients and medical personnel to ionizing radiation and its ...

Permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia in a patient with an atypically located accessory pathway in the left lateral mitral annulus

Revista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2016
Permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia (PJRT) is an uncommon form of atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia due to an accessory pathway characterized by slow and decremental retrograde conduction.

PRRX1 Loss‐of‐Function Mutations Underlying Familial Atrial Fibrillation

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common form of clinical cardiac dysrhythmia responsible for thromboembolic cerebral stroke, congestive heart failure, and death. Aggregating evidence highlights the strong genetic basis of AF. Nevertheless,
