Diagnostic value of implantable loop recorders in patients with unexplained syncope or palpitations
Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2021 Background The implantable loop recorder (ILR) is a small cardiac rhythm‐monitoring device. Our aim was to determine ILR diagnostic value in patients with unexplained syncope, presyncope, or palpitations suggesting cardiac arrhythmias.

Approach to the treatment of atrial fibrillation in patients with cardiovascular risk profile: Multicentric international study [PDF]
Srpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2015 Introduction. Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common arrhythmia that requires treatment, does not come out of the focus of researchers. Monitoring its prevalence and effects of therapy is a good guideline approach to the growing population of

Transvenous lead placement and its pre-sternal tunneling to the contralateral side as a solution for pacemaker system upgrade in case of the subclavian vein thrombosis [PDF]
Srpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2017 Introduction. Chronic right ventricular pacing can deteriorate cardiac function. Consequently, pacemaker system upgrades are more frequently indicated. These interventions can be hindered by venous thrombosis.

Endogenous driving and synchronization in cardiac and uterine virtual tissues: bifurcations and local coupling [PDF]
, 2006 Cardiac and uterine muscle cells and tissue can be either autorhythmic or excitable. These behaviours exchange stability at bifurcations produced by changes in parameters, which if spatially localized can produce an ectopic pacemaking focus.
