Conversion of supraventricular arrhythmias to sinus rhythm using flecainide [PDF]
We evaluated the efficacy of flecainide acetate (given intravenously to a maximal dose of2 mg kg−1 and then orally in a dose of 100 mg b.d. or 100 mg t.d.s.) in the conversion to sinus rhythm of 50 patients exhibiting supraventricular arrhythmias (39 ...

Antenatal antiarrhythmic treatment for fetal tachyarrhythmias: a study protocol for a prospective multicentre trial [PDF]
Introduction Several retrospective or single-centrestudies demonstrated the efficacy of transplacentaltreatment of fetal tachyarrhythmias. Our retrospectivenationwide survey showed that the fetal therapy willbe successful at an overall rate of 90%.

A Case of VF Misclassification Corrected by VF Therapy Assurance: Implications for ICD Programming
Implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator undersensing may delay therapy in ventricular fibrillation with low‐amplitude signals. Ventricular fibrillation therapy assurance (VFTA) detected persistent VF after initial shock failure, enabling timely shock delivery and successful resuscitation.

Role of Catheter Ablation in Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia [PDF]
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy is a disorder characterized by frequent ventricular tachycardia originating from the right ventricle and fibro-fatty replacement of right ventricular myocardium. Though the disorder was originally

Hypertension and sudden death disparate effects of calcium entry blocker and diuretic therapy on cardiac dysrhythmias [PDF]
This study was designed to evaluate the impact of antihypertensive therapy on cardiac dysrhythmias in 13 hypertensive patients who received calcium entry blockers and in 10 hypertensive patients who received hydrochlorothiazide.

Supraventricular Tachycardias Using Multiple Accessory Pathways
Three atrioventricular reciprocating tachycardias (AVRTs) using 3 accessory pathways (APs) occurred with the His bundle eliminated by the previous ablation. Two AVRTs using 2 right APs rotated reversely, and the other AVRT was one with a retrograde conduction through the left AP and anterograde conduction through the 2 right APs.

Belhassen Syndrome in Teenager Originating from Left Anterior Fascicle
A 16-year-old female patient was hospitalized due to narrow QRS tachycardia suggestive of fascicular ventricular tachycardia. Initially, the differential diagnosis with supraventricular tachycardia can be challenging.

Next-generation sequencing of AV nodal reentrant tachycardia patients identifies broad spectrum of variants in ion channel genes. [PDF]
Atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia (AVNRT) is the most common form of regular paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. This arrhythmia affects women twice as frequently as men, and is often diagnosed in patients

The atrial fibrillation (AF) risk estimated by artificial intelligence‐based program installed in electrocardiography (ECG) machine exhibited temporal variability. Reproducibility within one level of error was 100% for the same ECG, 95% for reproducibility within 4 min interval, and 87% for reproducibility over 15 min interval.
