CardioMEMSTM in LVAD Patients: A Case Series
Patients with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) commonly encounter issues with volume status post-implant. Volume overload can result from incomplete compensation of left ventricular failure or from right ventricular failure. The CardioMEMS™ intracardiac hemodynamic monitoring device is an area of growing interest regarding the management of ...

Nocturnal Hypoxemic Burden Predicts Mortality in Patients Awaiting Heart Transplantation
Trial design and results on hypoxemic burden in the context of heart transplantation. ABSTRACT Risk stratification for patients with end‐stage heart failure (HF) awaiting heart transplantation (HTX) is crucial. Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) is a prevalent comorbidity, yet the impact of its resultant hypoxemic burden remains unclear in this ...

Long‐Term Outcomes of Radiofrequency Atrioventricular Node Ablation in a Real‐World Population
ABSTRACT Background While interventional strategies have expanded the options for long term rhythm restoration, rate control continues to play a pivotal role in the treatment of atrial arrhythmias; however, pharmacologic strategies alone often fail in achieving effective rate control.
