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

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

Changes in pulse pressure variability during cardiac resynchronization therapy in mechanically ventilated patients [PDF]
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]
Early Afterdepolarizations, EADs, are defined as the reversal of the action potential before completion of the repolarization phase, which can result in ectopic beats.
