Azygos Vein Lead Implantation For High Defibrillation Thresholds In Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Placement

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2010
Evaluation of defibrillation threshold is a standard of care during implantation of implantable cardioverter defibrillator. High defibrillation thresholds are often encountered and pose a challenge to electrophysiologists to improve the defibrillation ...

Brugada Syndrome: New Implications for Heterozygous Carriers of the Pathogenic SCN5A c.689T>C(p.Ile230Thr) Variant

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in the SCN5A gene and its subunits have been identified in individuals with Brugada Syndrome. One such SCN5A variant, c.689T>C(p.Ile230Thr), was previously reported as disease‐causing only in homozygous individuals, with heterozygous carriers being unaffected.

An acoustic method (Spectral Flux) to analyze ECG signals for optimizing timing for defibrillation in a porcine model of ventricular fibrillation

Resuscitation Plus
Aim: Spectral Flux (SF), which is based on common algorithms in the audio processing field, was applied to quantitatively analyze ECG signals to optimize the timing of defibrillation.

Impact of Rapid Exome Sequencing on Pediatric Patients With Cardiomyopathy and Acute Heart Failure

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Few studies describe the impact of rapid exome sequencing (ES) on pediatric cardiomyopathy in urgent clinical settings. Here, we retrospectively report the impact of rapid singleton ES in pediatric patients presented with acute heart failure and isolated cardiomyopathy or myocarditis, between 2021 and 2023 at a single tertiary care center.

Defibrillation pad placement accuracy among Advanced Life Support instructors: A manikin-based observational study examining experience, self-evaluation, and actual performance

Resuscitation Plus
Background: Ventricular fibrillation is common in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Early and effective defibrillation is important for their survival. Effective defibrillation depends highly on correct positioning of the defibrillation pads.

Effect of Amplitude Spectral Area on Termination of Fibrillation and Outcomes in Pediatric Cardiac Arrest

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background Amplitude spectral area (AMSA) predicts termination of fibrillation (TOF) with return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and survival in adults but has not been studied in pediatric cardiac arrest. We characterized AMSA during pediatric cardiac

Environmentally Friendly Nanofiber Cellulose From Durian Rinds: A Sustainable Alternative Biomass Resource

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A novel, efficient, and eco‐friendly sustainable process has been developed for the extraction of cellulose nanofibers (CNF) from durian rinds. The method utilizes low‐molecular‐weight 2,2,6,6‐tetramethylpiperidine‐1‐oxyl (TEMPO) as an oxidation agent, in conjunction with sonication treatment, resulting in a significant reduction of processing
