Systematic review of the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of 64-slice or higher computed tomography angiography as an alternative to invasive coronary angiography in the investigation of coronary artery disease [PDF]
, 2008 Objectives: To assess the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness, in different patient groups, of the use of 64-slice or higher computed tomography (CT) angiography, instead of invasive coronary angiography (CA), for diagnosing people with ...

Impact of Leadless Pacemaker Implantation Position on Subclinical Right Ventricular Perforation
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Leadless pacemakers are typically implanted in the mid‐septum of the right ventricle (RV) to mitigate the risk of perforation. However, reports on the precise location of these implants are limited. This study aimed to elucidate tine‐based leadless pacemaker position and presence of subclinical RV perforation through computed ...

QT Interval Evaluation in Right Ventricular Pacing: Validation of a Novel Formula
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.Abstract Background QT interval measurement in the presence of right ventricular pacing (RVP) represents a clinical challenge. We therefore aimed to derive and validate a formula for QT estimation during RVP in a large cohort of pacemaker patients. Methods and Results We prospectively enrolled 100 patients in a derivation cohort and 487 in a validation

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Despite advancements in catheter ablation (CA) technique and expertise, success rates of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation have not substantially improved in recent years. Treating patients with advanced age and higher comorbidities may limit success rates while increasing complications.

Management of Left Atrial Appendage Thrombi and Spontaneous Echo Contrast
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background To analyze the efficacy and safety of various anticoagulation strategies/regimen used for managing thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast in the left atrial appendage. Methods Thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast in the left atrial appendage was detected via transesophageal echocardiography in 83 patients, most often during a stroke

Outcomes of a Simplified Two‐Catheter Approach for Catheter Ablation of SVT in Pediatric Patients
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Catheter ablations are an established treatment for supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) in pediatric patients with high success and low complication rates typically. This study evaluated the procedural outcomes, safety, and recurrence rates of pediatric patients undergoing SVT ablation using a two‐catheter approach.
