Cryoballoon or Radiofrequency Ablation for Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2016
BACKGROUND Current guidelines recommend pulmonary-vein isolation by means of catheter ablation as treatment for drug-refractory paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Radiofrequency ablation is the most common method, and cryoballoon ablation is the second most

Genotype‐guided cardiac device intervention in LMNA‐related cardiac conduction disorder: The need for timely genetic testing

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Sudden cardiac death is a catastrophic event, making its prevention important. However, patient selection for primary prevention remains controversial. We report two cases of cardiac conduction disorder initially treated with permanent pacemaker implantation.

Cardiac resynchronization therapy for enabling guideline‐directed medical therapy optimization in heart failure

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) as an enabler for guideline‐directed medical therapy (GDMT) in the Swedish Heart Failure Registry (SwedeHF). The figure summarizes the selection of the study population, changes in GDMTs and loop diuretic use/doses from baseline to 1.5‐year follow‐up in patients receiving versus not receiving CRT, and reports the

Intravenous ferric carboxymaltose in heart failure with iron deficiency (FAIR‐HF2 DZHK05 trial): Sex‐specific outcomes

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Intravenous iron has emerged as a guideline‐recommended therapy in patients with heart failure and iron deficiency, but the potential sex‐related differences in efficacy are unknown. We aimed to assess sex‐specific outcomes in the Intravenous Iron in Patients with Systolic Heart Failure and Iron Deficiency to Improve Morbidity & Mortality

A cavotricuspid isthmus-dependent flutter with an unexpected left atrial activation sequence: A case report

Heart Vessels and Transplantation
Objective: The isthmus-dependent right atrial flutter is a known arrhythmia, but few studies described the sequence activation of the left atrium. It is well established that the interatrial connection occurs through different pathways: the coronary ...
