Complete Heart Block Lacking Functional Anatomical Impairment in the Conduction System

Pakistan Journal of Medicine and Dentistry
Introduction: Complete heart block also known as third-degree atrioventricular block (AV block) is a condition in which there is no conduction of the impulse produce in the sinoatrial node (SA node) in the atrium to the ventricle.1 Complete heart ...

Reflex Syncope With Complete Heart Block Triggered by Swallowing in a Patient on Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are now standard of care for most advanced solid tumors. While effective, they are associated with immune‐related adverse events (irAEs), including rare autonomic complications. We present a patient with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma receiving nivolumab and ipilimumab who developed reflex syncope with ...

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.

Impact of ICD Presence in Patients With Left Ventricular Assist Devices for End‐Stage Heart Failure

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The prognostic relevance of implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) in patients with end‐stage heart failure (HF) with left ventricular assist device (LVAD) remains controversial. Objectives To evaluate the prognostic impact of ongoing use of ICD and associated complications in HF‐patients with LVAD‐implantation.

Management of Congenital Complete Atrioventricular Block in Preterm Neonates With Novel Pacing Method

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Congenital complete atrioventricular block (CCAVB) is a rare autoimmune mediated disorder with a guarded prognosis, particularly when associated with extreme prematurity and severe bradycardia. Recent advances in neonatal care for extremely premature infants with delivery at level IV neonatal intensive care unit and novel pediatric pacing ...

Delayed recurrence of complete atrioventricular block following ablation for premature ventricular complexes

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
A 77-year-old man was admitted for catheter ablation due to frequent premature ventricular complexes (PVCs). Activation mapping revealed that the earliest ventricular activation during the PVC was recorded on the left upper septum, where a clear His ...

Internal Jugular Vein as an Alternative Access for Pacemaker Implantation: A Mostly Left IJ Case Series

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Leadless pacemakers traditionally rely on femoral venous access, which may be limited in patients with unfavorable IVC anatomy, prior interventions, or situations where preserving femoral access is preferred. Internal jugular (IJ) access offers an alternative route, but real‐world data on IJ implantation of single‐ and dual‐chamber ...

Ventricular Pacing Inhibition After Dual‐Chamber Leadless Pacing Associated With a Retained Right Ventricular Lead

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An 88‐year‐old pacemaker‐dependent man with a retained low‐impedance, noise‐producing right ventricular lead underwent implantation of a dual‐chamber leadless pacemaker. On postoperative day 1, he developed recurrent syncope with pauses up to 13 s.

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.

Ventricular Synchrony in Targeted Right Ventricular Septal Pacing: A Prospective Paired Comparison to Apical Placement

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Right ventricular (RV) apical pacing, the standard pacing approach, often induces ventricular dyssynchrony, potentially impairing cardiac function. This study aims to investigate whether targeted RV septal pacing, guided by functional electrophysiological feedback during implantation, reduces ventricular dyssynchrony ...
