Influence of Atrioventricular Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia Ablation on Right to Left Inter-atrial Conduction [PDF]

, 2005
Background: Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation is the procedure of choice for the potential cure of atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) with high success rates.

The incidence and risk factors for new onset atrial fibrillation in the PROSPER study [PDF]

, 2011
Aims Atrial fibrillation/flutter (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in older people. It associates with reduced exercise capacity, increased risk of stroke, and mortality. We aimed to determine retrospectively whether pravastatin reduces the incidence of

Clinical characteristics and outcomes of adults with acute heart failure in a South African teaching hospital

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
In this study of 406 adults admitted with acute heart failure, the overall in‐hospital mortality rate was 3.4%. Independent predictors of in‐hospital mortality included elevated neutrophil‐lymphocyte ratio, C‐reactive protein, and potassium levels, along with moderate or severe aortic regurgitation and lower diastolic blood pressure.

Conversion of supraventricular arrhythmias to sinus rhythm using flecainide [PDF]

, 2017
We evaluated the efficacy of flecainide acetate (given intravenously to a maximal dose of2 mg kg−1 and then orally in a dose of 100 mg b.d. or 100 mg t.d.s.) in the conversion to sinus rhythm of 50 patients exhibiting supraventricular arrhythmias (39 ...

Relevance of residual tricuspid regurgitation for right ventricular reverse remodelling after tricuspid valve intervention in patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation and right‐sided heart failure

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Right ventricular reverse remodelling after transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention (TTVI). Optimal tricuspid regurgitation (TR) reduction is critical for right ventricular reverse remodelling. CMR, cardiac magnetic resonance; echo, echocardiography; RV EDV, right ventricular end‐diastolic volume. Abstract Aims Right ventricular reverse remodelling (

Deepr: A Convolutional Net for Medical Records

, 2016
Feature engineering remains a major bottleneck when creating predictive systems from electronic medical records. At present, an important missing element is detecting predictive regular clinical motifs from irregular episodic records.

The prognostic value of the Dandel's index in patients undergoing tricuspid transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Load adaptation indices and concepts. An adapted RV in response to overload increases wall thickness to normalize wall stress and preserve function and morphology. If hemodynamic overload is sustained, it can progress to a maladaptive state and lead eventually to heart failure. CI, cardiac index; Ees, ventricular elastance; Ea, arterial elastance; MPAP,

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance‐estimated pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, congestion markers, and effect of empagliflozin in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and dysglycaemia (SUGAR‐DM‐HF)

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims A cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) approach to non‐invasively estimate left ventricular (LV) filling pressure was recently developed and shown to correlate with invasively measured pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP). We examined the association between CMR‐estimated PCWP (CMR‐PCWP) and other imaging and biomarker measures of

Flutter auricular atípico tardio após ablação de fibrilhação auricular

Revista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2016
Resumo: A existência de cardiopatia estrutural, a história de cirurgia cardíaca prévia (frequentemente envolvendo a aurícula esquerda) e a ablação percutânea da fibrilhação auricular conduziram a um aumento da incidência de taquicardias auriculares ...
