Implementation of guidelines for intravenous iron therapy in heart failure patients

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims We aim to evaluate the implementation of the 2021 ESC Guidelines regarding screening and treatment of iron deficiency in patients with heart failure (HF) at Karolinska University Hospital. Methods and results Patients with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 50% and New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II–IV who visited ...

Atrial flutter ablation in a case of diuretic resistant constrictive pericarditis

open access: yesIndian Heart Journal, 2015
We present a 66 year old gentleman with constrictive pericarditis and persistent atrial flutter. Initial management with oral loop diuretics was successful until he developed persistent atrial flutter.

Cryoablation or Drug Therapy for Initial Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2020
BACKGROUND Guidelines recommend a trial of one or more antiarrhythmic drugs before catheter ablation is considered in patients with atrial fibrillation. However, first-line ablation may be more effective in maintaining sinus rhythm. METHODS We randomly

Atrial fibrillation and flutter as global drivers of heart failure: Burden and longitudinal trends over three decades

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims The study aims to comprehensively evaluate the global burden of heart failure attributable to atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFL) from 1990 to 2021. Methods Using data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021, we estimated the prevalence and years lived with disability (YLDs) of heart failure attributable to AF/AFL ...

Catheter ablation of typical right atrial flutter in a 20‐day‐old neonate with tachycardiomyopathy

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia
Background Fetal echocardiography can diagnose neonatal atrial flutter, which can cause heart failure in newborns. Little is known about catheter ablation in this population.

Preventing atrial fibrillation by combined right isthmus ablation and cryoballoon pulmonary vein isolation in patients with typical atrial flutter: PAF‐CRIOBLAF study

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, 2021
Background Although less common, typical atrial flutter shares similar pathophysiological roots with atrial fibrillation. Following successful cavo‐tricuspid isthmus ablation using radiofrequency, many patients, however, develop atrial fibrillation in ...

Incidence and predictors of premature ventricular complexes following catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, and previous studies have focused on the epidemiology, mechanisms and risk factors for this global disease (Ryder and Benjamin 1999). Various studies have examined the mechanism,

Characteristics of isolated atrial flutter versus atrial flutter combined with atrial fibrillation

open access: yesArchives of Cardiovascular Diseases, 2011
Atrial flutter (AFL) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are "fellow-travellers". AF may be a stable, "isolated" rhythm, a bridge between sinus rhythm and AF, or both arrhythmias can coexist. Whether the characteristics of isolated AFL are different from those of patients with AFL combined with AF is still unclear.To compare the clinical characteristics of ...

Two‐year outcomes of a cardiac microcurrent device in chronic heart failure: A first‐in‐human pilot study

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims In heart failure patients, altered myocardial electrical fields linked to oedema may impair left ventricular function. While short‐term use of implanted microcurrent generators (C‐MIC) has shown promise, long‐term effects remain unclear.

Clinical impact of tricuspid regurgitation in patients with acute myocardial infarction

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims The clinical impact of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in patients after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is largely unknown. The aim of this study was to clarify the prevalence and prognostic impact of TR in post‐AMI patients treated with appropriate primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
