The relationship of renal function to outcome: A post hoc analysis from the EdoxabaN versus warfarin in subjectS UndeRgoing cardiovErsion of Atrial Fibrillation (ENSURE-AF) study. [PDF]

, 2017
The ENSURE-AF study (NCT 02072434) of anticoagulation for electrical cardioversion in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) showed comparable low rates of bleeding and thromboembolism between the edoxaban and the enoxaparin-warfarin treatment arms. This

Rare but relevant: Ibogaine and cardiovascular complications—prolonged QT interval and ventricular arrhythmias

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Revived interest in psychedelic‐assisted therapies has also renewed focus on ibogaine, a psychoactive alkaloid, for its notable anti‐addictive potential. Evidence from observational, open‐label, and limited randomized placebo‐controlled trials indicates that ibogaine and its metabolite noribogaine reduce craving and withdrawal symptoms in ...

Effect of sotalol on heart rate, QT interval, and atrial fibrillation cycle length in horses with atrial fibrillation [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Based on its pharmacokinetic profile and electrophysiological effects in healthy horses, sotalol potentially could be used as a long-term PO antiarrhythmic drug in horses.

A Comprehensive Assessment of Renal Function During and After Pulsed Field Ablation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Acute kidney injury is an uncommon complication of pulsed field ablation (PFA). There is, however, limited empirical data on the dynamics of renal biomarkers apart from creatinine. Furthermore, no study to date has assessed creatinine at more than 24 h after the procedure. Methods Patients undergoing PFA for atrial fibrillation (AF)

Left atrial mechanical remodelling assessed as the velocity of left atrium appendage wall motion during atrial fibrillation is associated with maintenance of sinus rhythm after electrical cardioversion in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation.

PLoS ONE, 2020
The velocity of left atrium appendage (LAA) wall motion during atrial fibrillation (AF) is a potential marker of mechanical remodelling. In this study, we investigated whether the velocity of LAA wall motion during AF predicted the success of electrical ...

Changes in oral anticoagulation for elective cardioversion: results from a European cardioversion registry. [PDF]

, 2017
Aims: In patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) pharmacological or electrical cardioversion may be performed to restore sinus rhythm. The procedure is associated with an increased risk of thromboembolic events, which can be significantly reduced by ...

Traumatic iatrogenic chylothorax after external electrical cardioversion [PDF]

Respirology Case Reports, 2020
AbstractChylothorax, an uncommon cause of pleural effusion, results from the accumulation of lymph in the pleural space due to damage or obstruction of the thoracic duct. Chylothorax can be due to several aetiologies, many of which are rare, and it is often a diagnostic challenge to identify the cause.

Left Atrial Posterior Wall Functional Remodeling in Paroxysmal and Persistent Atrial Fibrillation. A Pilot Study

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The left atrial posterior wall (LAPW) is often targeted in atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation due to its shared properties with pulmonary veins. However, substrate‐guided approaches using structural markers have shown inconsistent results.

Hemodynamic Consequences and Clinical Outcomes With Intravenous Lidocaine Infusion in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Intravenous lidocaine is frequently used for refractory ventricular arrhythmia (VA). Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common comorbidity in VA patients. Lidocaine poses theoretical risks of hemodynamic compromise and pro‐arrhythmia, including AF with rapid ventricular rates (RVR).
