Arrhythmic Risk Profile and Outcomes of Patients Undergoing Cardiac Sympathetic Denervation for Recurrent Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia After Ablation

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background Cardiac sympathetic denervation (CSD) has been used as a bailout strategy for refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT). Risk of VT recurrence in patients with scar‐related monomorphic VT referred for CSD and the extent to which CSD can modify ...

Modern mapping and ablation of idiopathic outflow tract ventricular arrhythmias

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Outflow tract (OT) premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) are being recognized as a common and often troubling, clinical electrocardiographic finding. The OT areas consist of the Right Ventricular Outflow Tract (RVOT), the Left Ventricular Outflow Tract (

An inappropriately–appropriate ICD therapy: What is the mechanism and what interventions can be done?

Clinical Case Reports, 2023
Key Clinical Message R‐wave double counting is a rare cause of ventricular oversensing that can lead to inappropriate shocks. Optimizing device programming is essential for the avoidance of subsequent inappropriate therapies.

Left atrial appendage closure with zero fluoroscopic exposure via intracardiac echocardiographic guidance

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2020
Background/Purpose: Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) is conventionally guided by fluoroscopy and transesophageal echocardiography. We introduce an LAAC technique without fluoroscopy exposure using intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) and ...

Platelets and Cardiac Arrhythmia [PDF]

Frontiers in Physiology, 2010
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) remains one of the most prevalent modes of death in industrialized countries, and myocardial ischemia due to thrombotic coronary occlusion is its primary cause. The role of platelets in the occurrence of SCD extends beyond coronary flow impairment by clot formation.
