Five‐Year Change in the Renal Function After Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Although it has been reported that renal function can improve after catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF), long‐term changes in renal function and its relationship to rhythm outcomes have not yet been evaluated.

Shared Decision Making and Cardioneuroablation Allow Discontinuation of Permanent Pacing in Patients with Vagally Mediated Bradycardia

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023
Background: Safe discontinuation of pacemaker therapy for vagally mediated bradycardia is a dilemma. The aim of the study was to present the outcomes of a proposed diagnostic and therapeutic process aimed at discontinuing or not restoring pacemaker ...

Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, 2002
AbstractFollowing the advent of the surgical maze procedure, several catheter techniques have been developed to provide permanent prophylaxis against atrial fibrillation. These Noninvasive techniques work by compartmentalizing the atria, by ablating the arrhythmogenic foci, or by isolating the atria from these foci.

A Computational Journey Toward an Optimal Design for Metamaterial Epicardial Passive Sleeves

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Passive epicardial sleeves are evaluated in 3D in‐silico heart models to reveal how sleeve geometry, stiffness, anisotropy, and metamaterial architecture influence cardiac mechanics after myocardial infarction. A continuum‐to‐auxetic design exploration shows that region‐specific mechanical engagement can reduce infarct bulging and modulate torsional ...

Cryothermal Energy Ablation Of Cardiac Arrhythmias 2005: State Of The Art [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
At the time of antiarrhythmic surgery, cryothermal energy application by a hand-held probe was used to complement dissections and resections and permanently abolish the arrhythmogenic substrate.

Optimization of the Nonclinical Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Using Toxicologic Pathology Best Practices

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Nonclinical evaluation of biological responses to implanted medical devices and combination products in animals is required to predict possible outcomes and risks in patients. This paper describes globally accepted pathology “best practices” that 1) effectively address ISO standards and current regulatory guidance for medical device development and 2 ...

Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation : radiofrequency catheter ablation for redo procedures after cryoablation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Aim: To evaluate the effectiveness of two different strategies using radiofrequency catheter ablation for redo procedures after cryoablation of atrial fibrillation. Methods: Thirty patients (paroxysmal atrial fibrillation: 22 patients, persistent atrial

Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2010
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) most commonly develops in patients with structural heart disease. Myocardial infarction results in collagen replacement interspersed with surviving myocardium, which alters impulse propagation, facilitating re-entry.1 Aside from the postinfarction substrate, scar-mediated VT occurs in patients with nonischemic ...
