Endovascular Stenting for Pulmonary Vein Stenosis Following Atrial Fibrillation Ablation: From Diagnosis to Intervention

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is an uncommon but serious complication of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation, often misinterpreted as primary pulmonary disease. Timely identification is essential to prevent irreversible injury and to guide appropriate referral for interventional management. Case Presentations Through the discussion of

Incidence and Predictors of Hypoattenuated Thickening and Device‐Related Thrombus at Three Months Postprocedural CT Assessment Following Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion With Amplatzer Devices—A Single‐Center Cohort

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) has become a valuable alternative to long‐term anticoagulation for stroke prevention in patients with non‐valvular atrial fibrillation (AF), especially in those at high bleeding risk. Hypoattenuated thickening (HAT) and device‐related thrombus (DRT) remain notable postprocedural concerns ...

Erroneous computer-based interpretations of atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter in a Swedish primary health care setting

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Primary Health Care, 2019
Objective: To describe the incidence of incorrect computerized ECG interpretations of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter in a Swedish primary care population, the rate of correction of computer misinterpretations, and the consequences of misdiagnosis.

Elevated Hemoglobin Levels and Risk of ST‐Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction in High‐Altitude Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Retrospective Analysis

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background High‐altitude populations typically exhibit elevated hemoglobin (Hb) levels due to chronic hypoxic exposure; however, the impact of this elevation on the risk of ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. Existing evidence is primarily derived from low‐altitude populations and cannot be directly extrapolated

Nationwide Analysis of PCI After TAVR From the Netherlands Heart Registration

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has gained interest as concomitant coronary artery disease (CAD) is now often treated conservatively before TAVR, and TAVR is increasingly used in younger patients with longer life expectancies. Therefore, more contemporary data on PCI after

Commissural Misalignment Following Valve‐in‐Valve Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Data on commissural misalignment (CMA) during valve‐in‐valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation (ViV‐TAVI) for valve failure after surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) is scarce. Aims To study the impact of CMA on clinical and hemodynamic outcomes following ViV‐TAVI for failed SAVR.

Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Geometry as a Predictor of Permanent Pacemaker Implantation After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Using the Evolut Series

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Predicting the need for permanent pacemaker implantation (PPM) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is crucial for procedural planning and patient counseling. Aims To evaluate whether left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) morphology, specifically a tapered configuration, predicts conduction disturbances requiring PPM

Continuous smartwatch monitoring after atrial fibrillation ablation: feasibility of burden estimation and association with quality of life

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
IntroductionContinuous atrial fibrillation burden assessment is clinically relevant but often limited by the invasiveness of current tools. Wearables offer a non-invasive alternative, but evidence in the post-ablation setting is limited.
