Do the predictors of right ventricular pacing-induced cardiomyopathy add up?

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2021
Objective: Knowledge of factors causing pacing-induced cardiomyopathy (PICM) is incomplete. We sought to estimate the incidence and predisposing factors for PICM and evaluate if the risk they portend adds up.

Same-day discharge after atrial fibrillation ablation

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) catheter ablation has become an increasingly effective and safe strategy for the management of AF. With increased safety of catheter ablation, same-day discharge (SDD) is a potential way to minimize health care ...

LDL-C/HDL-C is associated with ischaemic stroke in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation: a case-control study

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2020
Background This study explored the relationships between the low−/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (LDL-C/HDL-C) and other clinical indicators and ischaemic stroke (IS) in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) in Xinjiang.

Echo-driven V-V optimization determines clinical improvement in non responders to cardiac resynchronization treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Echocardiography plays an integral role in the detection of mechanical dyssynchrony in patients with congestive heart failure and in predicting beneficial response to cardiac resynchronization treatment.

Post–Myocardial Infarction Scar With Fat Deposition Shows Specific Electrophysiological Properties and Worse Outcome After Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Fat deposition (FD) is part of the healing process after myocardial infarction. The characteristics of FD and its impact on the outcome in patients undergoing ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation have not been thoroughly studied.

Single-center experience with wearable cardioverter-defibrillator as a bridge before definitive ICD implantation

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2020
Background: The wearable cardioverter-defibrillator (WCD) has been approved for patients with poor left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) who are at risk of sudden arrhythmic death for a limited period but are not candidates for a definitive ...

Changes in pulse pressure variability during cardiac resynchronization therapy in mechanically ventilated patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Introduction The respiratory variation in pulse pressure ( PP) has been established as a dynamic variable of cardiac preload which indicates fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients.

Effects of early afterdepolarizations on excitation patterns in an accurate model of the human ventricles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Early Afterdepolarizations, EADs, are defined as the reversal of the action potential before completion of the repolarization phase, which can result in ectopic beats.
