Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Preprocedural imaging can improve the success rate of ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation. Left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT) measured by cardiac computed tomography (CT) can be used to identify infarct regions. We sought to determine whether an association exists between left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT) as obtained ...

Werner Irnich: Pioneer in the Development of the Dual‐Chamber Pacemaker—An Obituary
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fifty years ago, Werner Irnich presented the concept of an optimal pacemaker capable of responding appropriately to various cardiac arrhythmias and perceptual disturbances, and intended to be used in 85% of patients. With this concept, Irnich was far ahead of his time. His proposed circuitry for AV block and atrial fibrillation, as well as his

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.Abstract Background Implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator (ICD) therapy relies on reliable right ventricular leads for pacing, sensing, and defibrillation. The INVICTA DF4 lead is an active‐fixation, quadripolar design intended to optimize implant workflow and long‐term safety and performance. Methods APOLLO was a prospective, multicenter, single‐arm,

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.Graphical Abstract ABSTRACT Fluoroscopy has traditionally been the mainstay imaging technique for guidance during electrophysiology (EP) ablation procedures. The numerous disadvantages associated with radiation exposure for both operators and patients have created the need for zero‐fluoroscopy (ZF) approaches. Today, electrophysiologists have access to

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) alone achieves modest arrhythmia freedom in persistent atrial fibrillation (PeAF). Cryoballoon ablation (CBA) offers a single‐shot alternative to radiofrequency ablation (RFA) that streamlines procedural workflow.

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background The role of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) during hospitalization for heart failure (HFH) is uncertain, because hospitalized patients were routinely excluded from landmark CRT trials. Despite this, CRT implantation during HFH is common.

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Despite advancements in catheter ablation (CA) technique and expertise, success rates of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation have not substantially improved in recent years. Treating patients with advanced age and higher comorbidities may limit success rates while increasing complications.

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Right ventricular (RV) apical pacing, the standard pacing approach, often induces ventricular dyssynchrony, potentially impairing cardiac function. This study aims to investigate whether targeted RV septal pacing, guided by functional electrophysiological feedback during implantation, reduces ventricular dyssynchrony ...

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background In Wolff–Parkinson–White (WPW) syndrome, accurate localization of accessory pathways before catheter ablation can improve procedural planning and efficiency. Several 12‐lead electrocardiographic (ECG) algorithms have been proposed, but their diagnostic performance has not been consistently established.
