Heart Donation After Controlled Circulatory Death in Noncardiac Surgery Hospitals With a Mobile Heart Team: A Case Series From an Italian Regional Program and Integrated Review of the Literature

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
In this series of 19 DCD donors using TA‐NRP, 89.5% of hearts were successfully transplanted with no PGD, no postoperative ECMO, and no 30‐day mortality, demonstrating the feasibility and safety of this approach. ABSTRACT Controlled donation after circulatory death (cDCD) with thoracoabdominal normothermic regional perfusion (TA‐NRP) has emerged ...

Learning Curve of Pentaspline Pulsed‐Field Ablation With Posterior Wall Isolation for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pentaspline pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) has emerged as a novel modality for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and posterior wall isolation (PWI) in persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the learning curve associated with combined PVI + PWI and the contribution of anatomical factors to acute lesion completeness remain ...
