Chronic beta-adrenoceptor blockade and human atrial cell electrophysiology: evidence of pharmacological remodelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
<b>Objective:</b> Chronic beta-adrenoceptor antagonist (β-blocker) treatment reduces the incidence of reversion to AF in patients, possibly via an adaptive myocardial response.

Development of an international standard set of outcome measures for patients with atrial fibrillation: a report of the International Consortium for Health Outcomes Measurement (ICHOM) atrial fibrillation working group. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
AIMS: As health systems around the world increasingly look to measure and improve the value of care that they provide to patients, being able to measure the outcomes that matter most to patients is vital.

Efficacy and Safety of Dronedarone in Overweight and Obesity: Post Hoc Analysis of the ATHENA Trial

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Obesity represents a prevalent condition with multiple comorbidities, including atrial fibrillation (AF). Dronedarone, an antiarrhythmic drug (AAD), has demonstrated efficacy in patients with paroxysmal/persistent AF and cardiovascular (CV) risk factors.

Electrocardiographic predictors of early recurrence of atrial fibrillation

open access: yesAnnals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2021
Background Electrical cardioversion (ECV) is an effective method for restoring sinus rhythm after atrial fibrillation (AF). However, early recurrence of AF occurs in a significant number of patients after ECV.

QTc Dynamics Following Cardioversion for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundCardioversion (CV) for atrial fibrillation (AF) is common. We aimed to assess changes in QTc over time following electrical CV (ECV) for persistent AF, and to compare the benefit of using continuous Holter monitoring vs.

Impact of Emergent Physician Notifications from Mobile Cardiac Outpatient Telemetry on Patient Outcomes (The EP‐COT Trial)

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Mobile ambulatory cardiac telemetry (MCOT) use has increased over time; however, data on the prevalence and the impact of emergent arrhythmia notifications with MCOT remains unclear. We sought to determine the prevalence and clinical impact of emergent arrhythmia events in patients undergoing MCOT monitoring.

The role of edoxaban in preventing thromboembolic complications in patients with atrial fibrillation

open access: yesАтеротромбоз, 2020
Edoxaban is a selective direct factor Xa inhibitor. Edoxaban in a dose of 60 mg per day is an effective and safe option in the prevention of thromboembolic complications in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, including in combination therapy ...

Intermediate-Term Risk of Stroke Following Cardiac Procedures in a Nationally Representative Data Set. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Studies on stroke risk following cardiac procedures addressed only perioperative and long-term risk following limited higher-risk procedures, were poorly generalizable, and often failed to stratify by stroke type. We calculated stroke risk in

Diazepam in cardioversion [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Anaesthetists’ Society Journal, 1971
Ce travail decrit nos experiences au cours de 161 cardioversions par courant direct, dont 76 ont ete pratiquees sous anesthesie au diazepam seul et 85 sous anesthesie par divers agents. Generalement le premier choc etait de 100 watts seconde, et les suivants, si besoin, allaient en s’accroissant a partir de 100 watts seconde. Dans le groupe du diazepam,

Prospective Trial of Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of High Dominant Frequencies After Pulmonary Vein Isolation in Non‐Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (PAD‐AF Trial): A Multicenter, Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
In persistent AF, adjunctive dominant frequency‐guided ablation after pulmonary vein isolation did not significantly improve outcomes. Limited overlap between high‐frequency sites and low‐voltage areas suggests functional–structural dissociation, while right atrial low‐voltage burden predicts recurrence.
