Werner Irnich: Pioneer in the Development of the Dual‐Chamber Pacemaker—An Obituary

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fifty years ago, Werner Irnich presented the concept of an optimal pacemaker capable of responding appropriately to various cardiac arrhythmias and perceptual disturbances, and intended to be used in 85% of patients. With this concept, Irnich was far ahead of his time. His proposed circuitry for AV block and atrial fibrillation, as well as his

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 ...

Long‐Term Cardiovascular Outcomes Following New‐Onset Arrhythmias During Pregnancy

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Arrhythmias during pregnancy are increasingly prevalent and associated with acute adverse cardiovascular outcomes, yet their long‐term cardiovascular implications remain poorly defined. To address this gap, we conducted a large population‐based study to evaluate 5‐year cardiovascular outcomes following incident arrhythmias during ...

Global burden of atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter and its attributable risk factors in adolescents and young adults, 1990–2021: insights from the global burden of disease study

Annals of Medicine
Objective The aim of this study is to evaluate the global burden trends of atrial fibrillation/flutter with attributable risk factors among adolescents and young adults from 1990 to 2021, particularly in the context of the increasing prevalence of ...

Navigating the Zero Fluoroscopy Frontier: Current Tools, Evidence and Future Directions in Electrophysiology Procedures

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Graphical Abstract ABSTRACT Fluoroscopy has traditionally been the mainstay imaging technique for guidance during electrophysiology (EP) ablation procedures. The numerous disadvantages associated with radiation exposure for both operators and patients have created the need for zero‐fluoroscopy (ZF) approaches. Today, electrophysiologists have access to

Leadless Pacemaker Implantation in High‐Risk Patients: Real‐World Outcomes From a Multicenter Israeli Registry

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Transvenous pacemakers are effective but carry significant short‐ and long‐term complications. Leadless pacemakers were developed to overcome these limitations, however, data in high‐risk patients ineligible for transvenous systems remain limited.

Cryoballoon Versus Radiofrequency Ablation for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation: Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Trials

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) alone achieves modest arrhythmia freedom in persistent atrial fibrillation (PeAF). Cryoballoon ablation (CBA) offers a single‐shot alternative to radiofrequency ablation (RFA) that streamlines procedural workflow.

Navigating the fine line between focal atrial tachycardia and atrial flutter?

Clinical Case Reports
Key Clinical Message Focal atrial tachycardia (FAT) is an organized atrial rhythm >100 beats per minute initiated from a discrete origin and spreading over both atria in a centrifugal pattern. The arrhythmia may be sustained or incessant.

Rising Comorbidity Burden in Inpatient Atrial Fibrillation Catheter Ablation: Temporal Trends and In‐Hospital Outcomes

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Despite advancements in catheter ablation (CA) technique and expertise, success rates of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation have not substantially improved in recent years. Treating patients with advanced age and higher comorbidities may limit success rates while increasing complications.
