Clinical and genetic evaluation after sudden cardiac arrest
Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) and sudden cardiac death (SCD) can be attributed to cardiac, respiratory, metabolic, and toxicologic etiologies. Most cases of SCD are caused by coronary artery disease and approximately 40% of cardiac arrests are unexplained.

Two women presenting aborted sudden cardiac arrest as the first event of mitral valve disease [PDF]
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a relatively common valvular heart disease and is known to have a benign course. However, a certain subtype of MVP has a pathologic prognosis and can be accompanied by malignant cardiac arrhythmia causing sudden cardiac ...

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

AIMS In patients with catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) shocks are sometimes ineffective and may even trigger fatal electrical storms.

927-37 Is Coronary Revascularization Complete Therapy for Secondary Prevention of Ischemic Cardiac Arrest? [PDF]
Coronary revascularization has been suggested assole therapy for secondary prevention of sudden cardiac arrest associated with ischemia. Among 412 consecutive patients receiving an implantable defibrillator (ICD), 23 (6%) were identified as: sudden ...

Chagas Disease-induced Sudden Cardiac Arrest
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is the most common cause of death in patients with Chagas disease (ChD). There are over 300,000 ChD-infected individuals living in the United States, of whom 10–15% have undiagnosed Chagas cardiomyopathy (CCM).

Improved Cardiac Arrhythmia Prediction Based on Heart Rate Variability Analysis [PDF]
Many types of ventricular and atrial cardiac arrhythmias have been discovered in clinical practice in the past 100 years, and these arrhythmias are a major contributor to sudden cardiac death. Ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation are the most commonly-occurring and dangerous arrhythmias, therefore early ...

Technical Report: Comparative Evaluation of AR-based, VR-based, and Traditional Basic Life Support Training [PDF]
Basic life support (BLS) is crucial in the emergency response system as sudden cardiac arrest is still a major cause of death worldwide. In the majority of cases, cardiac arrest is witnessed out-of-hospital where execution of BLS including resuscitation through by-standers gets indispensable.

TransCon PTH is an investigational once‐daily prodrug providing sustained release of active PTH designed to maintain stable PTH levels in the physiological range for 24 hours/day. The PaTHway trial met all primary and key secondary endpoints with statistically significant differences from placebo. Most adverse events (AEs) were mild/moderate. Injection‐
