Utilization and Prognosis of Cardiac Device Implantation in AL Versus ATTR Amyloidosis
ABSTRACT Introduction Cardiac amyloidosis can cause congestive heart failure, arrhythmias, and heart blocks, which frequently require cardiac device implantation (CDI). However, the differences between light chain (AL) amyloidosis and transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis CDI requirements are unknown. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted using the

Early Mobilization After Pacemaker Implantation
ABSTRACT Background The increasing use of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) is leading to a rise in procedure‐related complications. Objective This trial aimed to assess the safety and feasibility of early mobilization and the possibility of same‐day discharge following permanent pacemaker implantation.

ABSTRACT Introduction Implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators (ICDs) are important in the prevention of sudden cardiac death. However, some appropriate ICD therapies may be considered unnecessary, delivered when patients do not experience symptoms of hemodynamic instability such as loss of consciousness.

Long‐Term Outcomes of Radiofrequency Atrioventricular Node Ablation in a Real‐World Population
Abstract Background While interventional strategies have expanded the options for long term rhythm restoration, rate control continues to play a pivotal role in the treatment of atrial arrhythmias; however, pharmacologic strategies alone often fail in achieving effective rate control.
