A study of electrode-tissue impedances encountered in cardiac pacing [PDF]
, 1987 Any study of the electrical properties of electrodeelectrolyte systems is rendered difficult by their dependance on, amongst other things, electrode history, electrode surface finish, electrode geometry, electrode area, electrolyte composition and the

Permanent biventricular ICD-implantation in a heart failure second re-do-CABG patient : a case report [PDF]
, 2009 Biventricular pacing has been suggested in end-stage heart failure. We present a 59-year-old patient undergoing second re-do CABG (coronary artery bypass graft) and carotid artery endarterectomy. Ejection fraction was 15%, QRS-width 175 ms. Following the

Hybrid Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation: A Contemporary Overview
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022 Electrical isolation of pulmonary veins (PVI) is the cornerstone of invasive treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, arrhythmia-free survival of a PVI only approach is suboptimal in patients with persistent and long-term persistent AF.

Temporary cardiac pacing [PDF]
Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1999 Temporary cardiac pacing can be a life-saving manoeuvre. The indications and techniques are well established.1 The procedure is one of the ‘essential’ components of the training programme in general internal medicine. This may be desirable, but is it wise nowadays? Is it achievable? The traditional indication for a temporary cardiac pacemaker is heart

Cardiac arrhythmias and pacing [PDF]
Srce i krvni sudovi, 2012 In the last two years, a number of land-mark clinical trials have been published which further our understanding and clinical management of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Two of the major goals in the treatment of this condition include reducing pro-gression or recurrence of the arrhythmia and decrea-sing the risk of cardiovascular events ...

Truths and Lies from the Polysomnography ECG Recording: An Electrophysiologist Perspective
Case Reports in Medicine, 2009 Polysomnography remains the gold standard for diagnosis of Sleep Apnea (SA) and evaluation of the apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) which is used as the primary index of SA severity.
