PREDICTION OF ATRIAL FIBRILLATION RECURRENCE IN PATIENTS WITH PERSISTENT ATRIAL FIBRILLATION SUFFERING FROM OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNOEA/HYPOPNOEA SYNDROME

Žurnal Grodnenskogo Gosudarstvennogo Medicinskogo Universiteta, 2019
Background. Untreated obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea syndrome (OSAHS) in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients influences the efficacy of antiarrhythmic drug therapy and reduces electrical cardioversion and catheter ablation success rates.

Arrhythmias Related to Cardioversion [PDF]

Circulation, 1964
DC countershock abolished 92 of 101 episodes of atrial fibrillation in 86 patients, an incidence of 91 per cent. Supraventricular arrhythmias were not infrequent immediately after countershock. These were transient and did not complicate the procedure nor were they hazardous to the patient. On two occasions a slow atrioventricular nodal rhythm appeared

Etripamil Nasal Spray for Recurrent Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia Conversion: Results From the NODE‐303 Open‐Label Study

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Etripamil is a fast‐acting intranasally self‐administered calcium‐channel blocker developed for termination of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT). Prior studies have demonstrated safety and efficacy of etripamil for PSVT termination following an initial medically supervised test dose during sinus rhythm. NODE‐303 is an

Visualization of Real‐Time Esophageal Location Using Intracardiac Echocardiography on a Three‐Dimensional Mapping System: Comparison of Esophageal Location Using Preoperative Computed Tomography and Investigation of Predictors for Esophageal Movement During Catheter Ablation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Esophageal imaging using intracardiac echocardiography (ICE‐Eso) showed a more accurate real‐time esophageal location than preoperative computed tomography (CT‐Eso). Non‐fasting on the day of catheter ablation (CA) may be a predictor of esophageal movement on the day of CA.
