End‐Of‐Life Care in a Cardiac Intensive Care Unit: A Retrospective Analysis of Interventions During the Last 48 Hours

Nursing in Critical Care, Volume 31, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Palliative care in intensive care units should be planned jointly with patients and their families and documented in medical records. Proximity to death should prompt reassessment of the therapeutic strategy. Aim To analyse the interventions performed during the last 48 h in patients who died in the cardiac intensive care unit ...

Transvenous electrical cardioversion of equine atrial fibrillation

, 2003
Conventional treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF) in the horse involves administration, orally or intravenously, of quinidine salts. The majority of uncomplicated cases respond to treatment, but a proportion do not. In many cases, achieving therapeutic

Clinical Vulnerability Refines Rhythm‐Related Outcomes in Older Patients Undergoing Pulmonary Vein Isolation for Atrial Fibrillation: An Observational Cohort Study

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 5, October 2026.
In patients undergoing pulmonary vein isolation, age ≥ 75 years was associated with greater recurrence‐related rhythm intervention. However, outcomes varied markedly among older adults. A simple score incorporating persistent AF, heart failure, chronic kidney disease, and valve disease identified elderly patients with low or high clinical vulnerability.

Cardiovascular Events of Electrical Cardioversion Under Optimal Anticoagulation in Atrial Fibrillation: The Multicenter Analysis [PDF]

, 2015
PURPOSE: Electric cardioversion has been successfully used in terminating symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF). Nevertheless, largescale study about the acute cardiovascular events following electrical cardioversion of AF is lacking.

Effectiveness of Bachmann's Bundle Pacing in a Patient With Severe Heart Failure and Refractory Atrial Fibrillation

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 5, October 2026.
This case report highlights CRT‐D with Bachmann's bundle pacing (BBP) in a patient with severe heart failure and refractory atrial fibrillation. BBP preserved atrioventricular conduction without PR prolongation, maintained left ventricular–only pacing, and was associated with suppression of atrial fibrillation and improvement in left atrial contractile

Multimodality Imaging‐Guided Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation in Cor Triatriatum Sinister

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 5, October 2026.
Multimodality imaging facilitated safe transseptal access and catheter navigation in a patient with cor triatriatum sinister. CARTO‐integrated VARIPULSE pulsed‐field ablation achieved pulmonary vein isolation without complications, demonstrating a feasible treatment strategy for atrial fibrillation in complex congenital left atrial anatomy.

Impact of Additional Transthoracic Electrical Cardioversion on Cardiac Function and Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence in Patients with Persistent Atrial Fibrillation Who Underwent Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation

Cardiology Research and Practice, 2016
Backgrounds and Objective. During the procession of radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) in persistent atrial fibrillation (AF), transthoracic electrical cardioversion (ECV) is required to terminate AF.

Pulsed‐Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation in Partial Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return With Right Atrial Drainage of Both Right Pulmonary Veins

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 5, October 2026.
Pulsed‐field ablation was safely performed in a patient with atrial fibrillation and partial anomalous pulmonary venous return. Electroanatomical mapping defined the sinus node region and confirmed sufficient distance from anomalous right pulmonary vein ablation sites, enabling successful isolation.
