Impact of Left Bundle Branch Pacing on Left Ventricular Mechanical Efficiency

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
The analysis of myocardial work in 115 consecutive patients receiving left bundle branch area pacing revealed a strong correlation between all myocardial work indices recorded during spontaneous or paced rhythm. Conversely, no significant correlations were observed between myocardial work indices and the R wave peak time in V6 or the V6–V1 interpeak ...

Impacts of Hemodynamic Support on Ventricular Arrhythmia Ablation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Data on the efficacy of hemodynamic support (HS) for protecting ventricular arrhythmia (VA) ablation in high‐risk heart failure (HF) patients with an impaired left ventricular function and its impact on mortality is limited. Objectives This study aimed to assess procedural efficacy, related complications, VA‐free survival, and ...

In Vitro Assessment of 3T MRI Effects on Non–3T‐Compatible Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The safety of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) during 3‐Tesla (3T) MRI remains uncertain, particularly for devices not designed for 3T use. We experimentally evaluated 3T MRI effects on 3T‐compatible and non–3T‐compatible CIEDs.

Comparative Efficacy of Continuous Versus Patch ECG Monitoring in Detecting Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence Post Catheter Ablation: Insights From the REAL‐AF Registry

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Effective monitoring of atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence following catheter ablation is crucial for optimizing patient outcomes. Various monitoring strategies exist, but effectiveness comparisons remain underexplored. Objective This study compares the recurrence of atrial arrhythmias detected by continuous versus patch ECG ...

Amiodarone‐related thyroid dysfunction and associated outcomes in patients with heart failure—A nationwide cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Amiodarone increases the risk of thyroid dysfunction, but the prognostic significance of this complication in patients with heart failure (HF) is uncertain. This study investigates the association between amiodarone‐related thyroid dysfunction and risk of HF hospitalization or death in a nationwide cohort.

Benefits of the Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2008
The state-of-the-art review by Tung and colleagues provides a thoughtful perspective on balancing the benefits and risks of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy addressing the concerns of many caring physicians. In this response: 1) the clinical benefits of ICD therapy are reviewed using the evidence base resulting from controlled ...

A Spinning Nightmare of Twiddler's Syndrome?

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Twiddler's syndrome is a known complication of CIED implantation. Most published cases of Twiddler's syndrome are described as being secondary to patient manipulation of the pulse generator leading to horizontal rotation and “reeling” of the pacemaker leads around the generator. The authors of this paper present a case of an 81‐year‐old female
