RHYTHM-AF: design of an international registry on cardioversion of atrial fibrillation and characteristics of participating centers [PDF]
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation is a serious public health problem posing a considerable burden to not only patients, but the healthcare environment due to high rates of morbidity, mortality, and medical resource utilization. There are limited data on the

Premature Ventricular Contractions From the Proximal Left Anterior Fascicle: Insight From the Electrophysiologic and Anatomic Parameters. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) originating from the proximal left anterior fascicle (LAF) are rarely discussed. We aimed to describe the characteristics and ablation outcome of PVCs originating from the proximal LAF and propose a stepwise approach.

Arrhythmia induction using isoproterenol or epinephrine during electrophysiology study for supraventricular tachycardia [PDF]
Background Electrophysiology study (EPS) is an important part of the diagnosis and workup for supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). Provocative medications are used to induce arrhythmias, when they are not inducible at baseline. The most common medication
