Sudden cardiac death in young people and athletes

Italian Journal of Medicine, 2018
The sudden death of a young subject or athlete is a rare but tragic event. The most common mechanism of cardiac arrest leading to sudden death is abrupt ventricular fibrillation as a consequence of an underlying cardiovascular disease.

Short report: Hospitalization for new‐onset heart failure in survivors of hospitalized COVID‐19

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Previous studies have reported an incidence of new‐onset heart failure (HF) among COVID‐19 survivors ranging from 0.7 to 8.5 per 100 person‐years, but they relied on administrative data for outcome ascertainment. Given the public health implications, a more accurate characterization of the HF burden post‐COVID‐19 is important. Methods and

Angiotensin receptor‐neprilysin inhibitors in concurrent heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and kidney failure

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Angiotensin receptor‐neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) therapy has demonstrated improved outcomes in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). However, its benefits in patients with concomitant kidney failure undergoing replacement therapy remain uncertain. Methods and results Using the National Health Insurance Service database, we

The effects of repetitive electric cardiac stimulation in dogs with normal hearts, complete heart block and experimental cardiac arrest [PDF]

, 1955
Direct cardiac stimulation was conducted in the open chest. In normal animals, auricular stimulation at frequencies faster than the spontaneous rate caused little change in vascular pressures or cardiac output.

Cardiac rhythm devices in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction – role, timing, and optimal use in contemporary practice. European Journal of Heart Failure expert consensus document

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Guidelines for management of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) emphasize personalized care, patient engagement, and shared decision‐making. Medications and cardiac rhythm management (CRM) devices are recommended with a high level of evidence. However, there are significant disparities: patients who could benefit from devices

Seizure-like activity at the onset of emergency medical service-witnessed out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: An observational study

Resuscitation Plus, 2021
Aims: Emergency medical service (EMS) may detect seizure-like activity in addition to agonal breathing in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). This study investigates the incidence and predictors of seizure-like activity in nontraumatic, EMS-witnessed ...

Impact of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists on the risk of sudden cardiac death across cardio‐kidney‐metabolic diseases: A meta‐analysis of randomized clinical trials

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a prevalent cause of mortality among patients with cardio‐kidney‐metabolic (CKM) diseases. Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) reduce the risk of SCD in patients with left ventricular dysfunction, but it is unclear if similar effects are expected across different CKM risk populations irrespective of
