High beat-to-beat blood pressure variability in atrial fibrillation compared to sinus rhythm

open access: yesBlood Pressure, 2018
Purpose: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, not entirely explained by thromboembolism. The underlying mechanisms for this association are largely unknown.

From Allergy to Angina: A Unique Presentation of Kounis Syndrome

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Kounis syndrome (KS) is a rare condition characterized by acute coronary syndrome (ACS) triggered by an allergic reaction. This report presents a case of high‐risk ACS associated with a food allergy. A 53‐year‐old male with no prior medical history presented to the emergency department with itching, facial swelling, chest tightness, shortness ...

A novel approach for the diagnosis of ventricular tachycardia based on phase space reconstruction of ECG [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology, Volume 172, Issue 1, March 2014, Pages e31-e33, 2014
Ventricular arrhythmias comprise a group of disorders which manifest clinically in a variety of ways from ventricular premature beats (VPB) and no sustained ventricular tachycardia (in healthy subjects) to sudden cardiac death due to ventricular tachyarrhythmia in patients with and/or without structural heart disease.

Combination of frequency-and time-domain characteristics of the fibrillatory waves for enhanced prediction of persistent atrial fibrillation recurrence after catheter ablation [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon 2024(3)
Catheter ablation (CA) remains the cornerstone alternative to cardioversion for sinus rhythm (SR) restoration in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Unfortunately, despite the last methodological and technological advances, this procedure is not consistently effective in treating persistent AF.

Beat by Beat: Classifying Cardiac Arrhythmias with Recurrent Neural Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
With tens of thousands of electrocardiogram (ECG) records processed by mobile cardiac event recorders every day, heart rhythm classification algorithms are an important tool for the continuous monitoring of patients at risk. We utilise an annotated dataset of 12,186 single-lead ECG recordings to build a diverse ensemble of recurrent neural networks ...

International criteria for electrocardiographic interpretation in athletes: Consensus statement. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is the leading cause of mortality in athletes during sport. A variety of mostly hereditary, structural or electrical cardiac disorders are associated with SCD in young athletes, the majority of which can be identified or ...

Clinical profile, short and long‐term outcomes of non‐ischaemic cardiogenic shock: A FRENSHOCK sub‐analysis

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Although predominant in routine practice, non‐ischaemic cardiogenic shock (NICS) remains underrepresented in past studies, mainly focused on ischaemic cardiogenic shock (CS). This study aims to describe the current NICS picture and define its independent correlates of short‐ and long‐term outcomes.

STATE OF THE ART PHARMACOLOGICAL THERAPY FOR ATRIAL FIBRILLATION

open access: yesРоссийский кардиологический журнал, 2017
Pharmacological therapy remains the primary approach to atrial fibrillation (AF). Management of all AF patients includes the decision on rate or rhythm control. The latter means antiarrhythmic drugs application that are being selected primarily by safety

Causal Scale Shift Associated with Phase Transition to Human Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
An example of phase transition in natural complex systems is the qualitative and sudden change in the heart rhythm between sinus rhythm and atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common irregular heart rhythm in humans. While the system behavior is centrally controlled by the behavior of the sinoatrial node in sinus rhythm, the macro-scale collective ...
