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.

Comparison of monophasic and biphasic shocks for transthoracic cardioversion of atrial fibrillation [PDF]
, 2003 OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy of cardioversion in patients with atrial fibrillation between monophasic damped sine waveform and rectilinear biphasic waveform shocks at a high initial energy level and with a conventional paddle ...

Diurnal QT analysis in patients with sotalol after cardioversion of atrial fibrillation
Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2021 Background The risk of ventricular arrhythmias in patients on QT prolonging drugs is indicated to be increased early after cardioversion (CV) of atrial fibrillation (AF) to sinus rhythm (SR).

Modified Anatomical Ablation Strategy for Mitral Isthmus
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Durable mitral isthmus (MI) block remains challenging in persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. Ethanol infusion into the vein of Marshall (EI‐VOM) enhances efficacy, but the minimal endocardial ablation extent post‐EI‐VOM is undefined.

Effect of sotalol on heart rate, QT interval, and atrial fibrillation cycle length in horses with atrial fibrillation [PDF]
, 2018 Background: Based on its pharmacokinetic profile and electrophysiological effects in healthy horses, sotalol potentially could be used as a long-term PO antiarrhythmic drug in horses.

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), sinus node disease (SND) represents a potentially reversible concomitant condition. Initial treatment with catheter ablation (CA) aimed at restoration of sinus rhythm may provide an alternative to pacemaker implantation. In this case series, 15 elderly patients (>65 years) with AF and SND underwent CA,

Medicina, 2019 Atrial fibrillation is the most common cardiac arrhythmia and is associated with an increased risk of stroke and thromboembolic complications. A rhythm control strategy with both electrical and pharmacological cardioversion is recommended for patients ...

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.This graphical abstract presents a comprehensive analysis of probe stability and oscillation during very high‐power short‐duration (vHPSD) pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for atrial fibrillation. The findings indicate that oscillation velocity serves as a more reliable predictor of impedance drop and temperature changes than contact force alone ...

Initial treatment of a patient with ventricular tachycardia: Case report [PDF]
ABC: časopis urgentne medicineVentricular Tachycardia (VT) is defined as any rhythm with more than 120 beats per minute originating distally from the His bundle, in the ventricular myocardium, outside the actual conduction system, and represents a life-threatening arrhythmia.
