Cardiac resynchronization therapy in heart failure – Beyond the standard

IHJ Cardiovascular Case Reports, 2017
Cardiac resynchronization therapy device (CRT- defibrillator and CRT-pacemaker) implantations have increased remarkably over the last decade. Conventionally these devices are used in patients with symptomatic systolic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction ...

Prognostic significance of accelerated ventricular response during radiofrequency ablation of premature ventricular complexes

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2020
Background: Accelerated ventricular response is frequently observed during radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of premature ventricular complexes (PVCs). We hypothesized that acceleration indicates an appropriate site and adequate injury to the arrhythmogenic ...

The Mind From Within: Visceral Roots of Human Cognition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The physiological activity of visceral organs, such as the heart, the lungs, and the gut, is surprisingly linked to many sophisticated mental operations, such as remembering the past, being aware of ourselves, making choices, and forging social bonds.

Transcatheter Leadless Cardiac Pacing with Limited Venous Access [PDF]

, 2016
Entirely leadless cardiac pacemakers that are delivered transvenously required the use of large diameter delivery sheath and femoral venous approach. The complexity of external femoral and iliac venous anatomy may limit their implantation.

Harnessing Phase Separation for the Development of High‐Performance Hydrogels

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydrogels are indispensable for the development of next‐generation bioelectronics, soft robotics, and biomedical devices, where their mechanical properties determine performance and reliability. Among strategies to enhance hydrogel mechanics, phase separation enables controlled heterogeneity resulting in gel networks that are reinforced by ...

Synchronization‐Dissipation in the Cardiorespiratory System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By modeling central nervous coupling and viscoelastic interactions in the cardiorespiratory system we show that synchronization produces a 10% gain in cardiac efficiency in humans. It is surmised that respiratory sinus arrhythmia improves cardiac pumping efficiency by reducing dynamic stress and power dissipation in the pulmonary vasculature.

Repeat procedures for recurrent persistent atrial fibrillation: A propensity‐matched score comparison between left atrial linear ablation with radiofrequency and posterior wall isolation with the cryoballoon

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2021
Aims To evaluate the clinical outcome in patients undergoing repeat procedures for recurrent persistent atrial fibrillation following an index cryoballoon (CB‐A) pulmonary vein isolation ablation on a mid‐term follow‐up of 12 months.
