Percutaneous endocardial alginate–hydrogel injection in the treatment of heart failure: First‐in‐human study

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Using EndoWings™ and XDROP™, we developed a percutaneous minimally invasive technique for sequential circumferential alginate hydrogel injection into LV free mid‐wall. This human study assessed its safety/feasibility in HFrEF patients, with personalised biomechanical models.

Long‐term prognosis of pure and impure tachycardiomyopathy

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Tachycardia‐induced cardiomyopathy (TCM) is a reversible form of heart failure (HF) driven by arrhythmias, often atrial fibrillation (AF). While reversible, TCM's long‐term prognosis remains unclear, especially in comparison to HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
