Radiofrequency catheter ablation of inappropriate sinus tachycardia guided by activation mapping
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of activation mapping for radiofrequency modification of the sinus node and the long-term success rate of the procedure in a series of patients with inappropriate sinus tachycardia. BACKGROUND:

ABSTRACT Introduction Implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators (ICDs) are important in the prevention of sudden cardiac death. However, some appropriate ICD therapies may be considered unnecessary, delivered when patients do not experience symptoms of hemodynamic instability such as loss of consciousness.

Long QT Syndrome Type 5 With Coexisting KCNE1 and RYR2 Variants: A Diagnostic Ambiguity
ABSTRACT Long QT syndrome (LQTS) predisposes to syncope and sudden cardiac death. Type 5 LQTS, linked to KCNE1 variants, is rare. A teenage female presented with recurrent syncope. ECG showed QTc 485 ms. Genetic testing identified KCNE1 and RYR2 variants. Beta‐blockers and ICD prevented events.

ABSTRACT Persistent diarrhea during anticancer therapy may not be attributable to anticancer agents. Our patient presented with diarrhea during lenvatinib–pembrolizumab therapy, likely caused by lansoprazole‐induced microscopic colitis. Even when symptoms closely resemble anticancer drug or immune‐related colitis, drug‐induced colitis due to ...

When sinus tachycardia becomes too much: negative effects of excessive upright tachycardia on cardiac output in vasovagal syncope, postural tachycardia syndrome, and inappropriate sinus tachycardia. [PDF]
Background - Upright posture reduces venous return, stroke volume and cardiac output (CO) while causing reflex sinus rate (HR) increase. Yet, in inappropriate sinus tachycardia (IST), postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS), and vasovagal syncope (VVS ...

An inappropriate shock after reprogramming tachycardia zones
A patient with an implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator (ICD) (Abbott®) had episodes of slow monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT) and his ICD was programmed with three tachycardia zones. During the follow‐up, he received an inappropriate shock. Upon

Case Report: Pseudo-wide QRS complex tachycardia in an infant with complex congenital heart disease
The initial electrocardiogram (ECG) of a 5-month-old infant with complex congenital heart disease (pulmonary valvular stenosis, ventricular septal defects, and patent ductus arteriosus) revealed a regular wide QRS tachycardia at 169 bpm, initially ...
