Case report: electrical storm during induced hypothermia in a patient with early repolarization
BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2017 Background Population based studies showed an association of early repolarization in the electrocardiogram (ECG) and a higher rate of sudden cardiac death presumably due to ventricular fibrillation.

Successful Ablation of Epicardial Premature Ventricular Complexes Near the Great Cardiac Vein from the Left Ventricular Endocardium Despite Predictors of Failure [PDF]
The Journal of Innovations in Cardiac Rhythm Management, 2017 Mapping and ablating premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) that originate near the great cardiac vein (GCV) and anterior interventricular vein (AIV) can pose several challenges related to the advancement and positioning of catheters within these veins, the delivery of effective lesions, and the risk of collateral injury to the left coronary arteries ...

Electrophysiological mapping of the epicardium via 3D‐printed flexible arrays
Bioengineering & Translational Medicine, 2023 Cardiac electrophysiology mapping and ablation are widely used to treat heart rhythm disorders such as atrial fibrillation (AF) and ventricular tachycardia (VT). Here, we describe an approach for rapid production of three dimensional (3D)‐printed mapping

Arrhythmia induction using isoproterenol or epinephrine during electrophysiology study for supraventricular tachycardia [PDF]
, 2018 Background Electrophysiology study (EPS) is an important part of the diagnosis and workup for supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). Provocative medications are used to induce arrhythmias, when they are not inducible at baseline. The most common medication
