Efficacy of an alternative positioning of intracardiac defibrillation catheters in atrial fibrillation ablation

Journal of Arrhythmia
Background In pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for atrial fibrillation (AF), intraoperative defibrillation is often required. Intracardiac defibrillation catheters (ICDCs) are most effective when positioned to enclose the heart between the coronary sinus ...

Pulsed‐Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation in Partial Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return With Right Atrial Drainage of Both Right Pulmonary Veins

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 5, October 2026.
Pulsed‐field ablation was safely performed in a patient with atrial fibrillation and partial anomalous pulmonary venous return. Electroanatomical mapping defined the sinus node region and confirmed sufficient distance from anomalous right pulmonary vein ablation sites, enabling successful isolation.

5G Cloud‐Enabled Telemedicine for Remote Management of Heart Failure Patients With Implantable Cardioverter‐Defibrillators: A Multicenter Open‐Label Randomized Controlled Trial

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
Postoperative follow‐up for patients with implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators and cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillators (ICD/CRT‐D) is often delayed in remote areas because of geographic barriers and limited healthcare resources, increasing the risk of adverse outcomes. The “Make Changes” study, was a prospective, multicenter, open‐label

Anaesthetic Techniques for Cardiac Ablation—A Scoping Review

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 70, Issue 9, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Cardiac arrhythmias, particularly atrial fibrillation, have rising prevalence and represent a growing global health burden. Catheter ablation is a commonly used treatment demanding sedation or anaesthesia for comfort, stability and safety. Anaesthetic techniques vary globally, and the optimal strategy has yet to be determined.

Diagnosis and Management of Left Atrium Appendage Thrombosis in Atrial Fibrillation Patients Undergoing Cardioversion

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 ...

Thromboembolic risk of electrical cardioversion in patients with cardiogenic shock

International Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature
Background: Cardiogenic shock patients with atrial fibrillation or flutter often require acute cardioversion despite absence of sufficient anticoagulation or the possibility to rule out left atrial appendage thrombus.

NT-proBNP predicts maintenance of sinus rhythm after electrical cardioversion

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia. NT-proBNP is a fragment of the prohormone brain natriuretic peptide. Previous studies indicate that increased levels of NT-proBNP are associated with higher recurrence rates of AF after ...
