A Large Retrospective Study to Evaluate Utility of Zephyr Covered Stent in Transcatheter Closure of Sinus Venosus Defects

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter closure (TCC) of sinus venosus defects (SVD) using balloon‐expandable covered stents is an emerging alternative to surgery. ZephyrCS (Sahajanand Laser Technologies, Gandhinagar, India) is available in long lengths to suit SVD closure.

Interventional therapies for chronic heart failure: An overview of recent developments

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1081-1094, April 2025.
Abstract Heart failure (HF), the final manifestation of most cardiovascular diseases, has become a major global health concern, affecting millions of individuals. Despite basic drug treatments, patients present with high morbidity and mortality rates. However, recent advancements in interventional therapy have shown promising results in improving the ...

Navigating the Zero Fluoroscopy Frontier: Current Tools, Evidence and Future Directions in Electrophysiology Procedures

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Graphical Abstract ABSTRACT Fluoroscopy has traditionally been the mainstay imaging technique for guidance during electrophysiology (EP) ablation procedures. The numerous disadvantages associated with radiation exposure for both operators and patients have created the need for zero‐fluoroscopy (ZF) approaches. Today, electrophysiologists have access to

The anatomy of interatrial communications - what does the interventionist need to know? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Increasingly, the interventional cardiologist is seeking to close interatrial communications by inserting devices by means of catheterisation. So as to optimise these procedures, it is adavantageous to have a firm grasp of the anatomy of the normal ...

ADVANCED INTERATRIAL BLOCK PREDICTS INEFFECTIVE CARDIOVERSION OF ATRIAL FIBRILLATION [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Aims: Rhythm control using electrical cardioversion (CV) is a common treatment strategy for patients with symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF). To guide clinical decision making, we sought to assess if electrocardiographic interatrial blocks could ...

Mechanisms underlying local Ca2+ signalling differences between right and left atrial myocytes at normal and increased frequencies

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Left atrial myocytes have TAT‐associated faster Ca2+ release but are more prone to maladaptation at higher frequencies due to weaker peripheral SR Ca2+ uptake and smaller trigger Ca2+ current. Abstract Changes in heart rate affect Ca2+ signalling and contractility in ventricular muscle, but the effects on atrial Ca2+ signalling ...

Interatrial block to predict atrial fibrillation in myotonic dystrophy type 1

open access: yes, 2018
Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation frequently occurs in Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) patients. Interatrial block is recognized as predictor of atrial arrhythmias, particularly atrial fibrillation (AF).

Comparative multimodal calibration of patient‐specific atrial fibrillation models: Impact of imaging and electrophysiology data on arrhythmogenic substrate identification

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Comparative multimodal calibration of patient‐specific left atrial (LA) models to identify arrhythmogenic substrates in atrial fibrillation (AF). A, LA models shown in posterior and anterior views, calibrated separately using: late gadolinium enhancement magnetic resonance imaging (LGE‐MRI) image intensity ratio (IIR; blue–red ...
