Percutaneous Left Atrial Appendage Closure Using a PFO Occluder After an Incomplete Surgical Ligation

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The case regards a 73‐year‐old male who was referred for consideration of percutaneous left atrial appendage closure. His left atrial appendage was ligated during prior mitral valve surgery, but was noted to be patent on a recent transesophageal echocardiography. An Amulet device was selected based on CT planning.

Driving restrictions in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillators and pacemakers

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2017
Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) improve the survival in patients at risk of sudden cardiac death. However, these patients have an ongoing risk of sudden incapacitation that may cause harm to individuals and others when driving ...

Enhancing Evidence Generation by Linking Randomized Clinical Trials to Real‐World Data: The INVESTED‐Medicare Linkage Study

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Real‐world evidence (RWE) derived from real‐world data (RWD) can complement randomized controlled trials (RCTs), yet the validity of RWD relative to RCT data remains insufficiently characterized. We obtained post hoc consent and linked individual participant data from the US‐based INVESTED trial (2016–2019) with Medicare fee‐for‐service claims (2012 ...

Pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators – general and anesthetic considerations

Brazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2014
A pacemaking system consists of an impulse generator and lead or leads to carry the electrical impulse to the patient's heart. Pacemaker and implantable cardioverter defibrillator codes were made to describe the type of pacemaker or implantable ...

The difficult discussion on the deactivation of implantable cardioverter devices at the end of life: a systematic review

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 733-760, April 2025.
Abstract Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) reliably prevent death due to life‐threatening arrhythmias; this may become less relevant in people with more severe heart failure who are reaching the end of life (EOL). This review aimed to explore the ICD deactivation process and identify ethical issues, especially around the initiation of ...

Forecasting heart failure: Seasonal alignment of heart failure outcomes in New York

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 819-831, April 2025.
Abstract Background Seasonal variations have been observed in heart failure (HF) hospitalization. Numerous explanatory mechanisms have been proposed, but no prior studies have examined potential contributors directly. Our objective was to identify specific factors that could contribute to seasonal variability using a large longitudinal dataset of HF ...

Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator [PDF]

Circulation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology, 2012
Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) represent a very effective therapy for primary and secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD). However, implantation of endocardial leads using a transvenous approach is associated with significant procedural and long term complications.

Socio‐economic inequalities and heart failure morbidity and mortality: A systematic review and data synthesis

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 927-941, April 2025.
Abstract Socio‐economic status (SES) has been associated with incident and prevalent heart failure (HF), as well as its morbidity and mortality. However, the precise nature of the relationship between SES and HF remains unclear due to inconsistent data. This study aims to provide a comprehensive assessment and data synthesis of the relationship between
