Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia: physiopathology and management
Journal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2014 Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) is the most frequent arrhythmia in newborns and infants. Most supraventricular tachycardias affect structurally healthy hearts. Apart from occasional detection by parents, most tachycardias in this age group

Redesigning Pulsed Field Ablation Catheter Form Factors for Lesion Precision, Durability, and Safety
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a cutting‐edge treatment for arrhythmias that targets cardiac tissue with rapid, high‐voltage electric current pulses, resulting in irreversible electroporation. Freed from the constraints of traditional radiofrequency (RF) ablation, the non‐thermal mechanism and myocardial selectivity of PFA has improved ...

Repolarization adaptation to rapid change in heart rate in human models – a review
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend This review focuses on non‐invasive assessment of repolarization duration and dispersion (heterogeneity) adaptation to change in heart rate (HR). HR was increased incrementally by left atrial pacing during an electrophysiology (EP) study and by a bolus injection of atropine and in a step up/down fashion by repeated right atrial ...
