The Left Atrial Appendage Revised

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery
Nonvalvular atrial fibrillation is associated with a 4- to 5-fold strokes increase and may be responsible for 15% to 20% of all strokes in the elderly. In this scenario, the left atrial appendage thrombus would be the associated with 90% of cases.

Validation of a smart textile electrocardiographic monitoring device in racehorses during high‐speed exercise

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Exercise‐associated cardiac arrhythmias may contribute to poor performance and sudden cardiac death in horses. Widespread monitoring is limited by device availability and suitability for field use. Objectives To (1) compare electrocardiographic (ECG) quality from a smart textile system (Myant Skiin Equine) with a reference device ...
