QT Interval Evaluation in Right Ventricular Pacing: Validation of a Novel Formula
Abstract Background QT interval measurement in the presence of right ventricular pacing (RVP) represents a clinical challenge. We therefore aimed to derive and validate a formula for QT estimation during RVP in a large cohort of pacemaker patients. Methods and Results We prospectively enrolled 100 patients in a derivation cohort and 487 in a validation

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

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Safety in Patients With Conditional Mixed‐Manufacturer Devices
ABSTRACT Background Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a critical diagnostic tool known for its non‐invasive nature and high‐resolution imaging capabilities. However, its safety in patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs), particularly those with mixed‐lead systems, remains a significant clinical concern.

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.

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.

ABSTRACT Background Managing non‐functional cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) leads remains controversial. While extraction is standard for infection, it is unclear whether transvenous lead extraction (TLE) or lead abandonment (LA) provides superior outcomes for superfluous leads.
