Artificial intelligence for heart rate variability analyzing with arrhythmias [PDF]
Introduction. Existing standards of Heart Rate Variability (HRV) technology limit its use to sinus rhythm. A small number of extrasystoles is allowed, if the device used has special procedures for the detection and replacement of ectopic complexes ...

Abstract Aims Iron deficiency (ID) is prevalent in chronic heart failure (HF) but lacks a consensus definition. This study evaluates the prevalence and the prognostic impact of ID using different criteria on all‐cause and cardiovascular mortality, as well as first hospitalization for HF in patients with new‐onset chronic HF.

Catheter ablation of typical right atrial flutter in a 20‐day‐old neonate with tachycardiomyopathy
Background Fetal echocardiography can diagnose neonatal atrial flutter, which can cause heart failure in newborns. Little is known about catheter ablation in this population.

Atrial flutter ablation in a case of diuretic resistant constrictive pericarditis
We present a 66 year old gentleman with constrictive pericarditis and persistent atrial flutter. Initial management with oral loop diuretics was successful until he developed persistent atrial flutter.

Sudden cardiac death in patients with ischemic heart failure undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting results from the STICH randomized clinical trial (Surgical Treatment for Ischemic Heart Failure) [PDF]
Background—The risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with heart failure following CABG has not been examined in a contemporary clinical trial of surgical revascularization. This analysis describes the incidence, timing and clinical predictors of

Characteristics of isolated atrial flutter versus atrial flutter combined with atrial fibrillation
Atrial flutter (AFL) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are "fellow-travellers". AF may be a stable, "isolated" rhythm, a bridge between sinus rhythm and AF, or both arrhythmias can coexist. Whether the characteristics of isolated AFL are different from those of patients with AFL combined with AF is still unclear.To compare the clinical characteristics of ...

Abstract Background and objectives Initially described as a benign acute cardiomyopathy, Takotsubo syndrome has been linked to elevated mortality rates. Emerging evidence suggests that unresolved myocardial inflammation may contribute to this adverse prognosis.

The Impact of Standard Ablation Strategies for Atrial Fibrillation on Cardiovascular Performance in a Four-chamber Heart Model [PDF]
Atrial fibrillation is one of the most frequent cardiac arrhythmias in the industrialized world and ablation therapy is the method of choice for many patients. However, ablation scars alter the electrophysiological activation and the mechanical behavior of the affected atria.

Routine data analysis showing a better outcome regarding mortality and readmission in HF patients when being prescribed the current four‐drug treatment (vs. the outdated two‐drug therapy) 91–365 days after index hospital stay. Abstract Aims The 2021 European heart failure (HF) guidelines recommend the combination of four drugs as a standard therapy ...
