Temporary epicardial left ventricular and biventricular pacing improves cardiac output after cardiopulmonary bypass

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2012
Background To evaluate, with different pacing modes, acute changes in left ventricular systolic function, obtained by continuous cardiac output thermodilution in various subsets of patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass surgery.

Incidence and predictors of premature ventricular complexes following catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, and previous studies have focused on the epidemiology, mechanisms and risk factors for this global disease (Ryder and Benjamin 1999). Various studies have examined the mechanism,

Clinical Impact of Concordant and Discordant Physiology Parameters Post‐Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in the EASY‐PREDICT Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In the EASY‐PREDICT Study, patients were randomized to angiography‐guidance or post‐percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) physiology‐guidance. Discordance between resting and hyperemic physiology post‐PCI might have a different relationship with clinical outcomes.

Sudden cardiac death in patients with ischemic heart failure undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting results from the STICH randomized clinical trial (Surgical Treatment for Ischemic Heart Failure) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background—The risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with heart failure following CABG has not been examined in a contemporary clinical trial of surgical revascularization. This analysis describes the incidence, timing and clinical predictors of

A Streamline Strategy for Indication and Length of Telemetry Monitoring After TAVR

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Both indication and length of ECG telemetry monitoring (TM) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) are not well defined. Aims We hypothesize that a targeted strategy for monitoring conductive disorders (CD) post‐TAVR can reduce the need and duration of in‐hospital TM without compromising safety. Methods We prospectively

Simultaneous Repair of Iatrogenic Left Atrial and Aortic Perforations Using Ductus Arteriosus Occluders: A Case Report

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iatrogenic perforation of the left atrium and aorta during transseptal puncture (TSP) is a rare but potentially life‐threatening complication. This report presents the case of an elderly male patient with a 20‐year history of atrial fibrillation who experienced this complication during a scheduled left atrial appendage closure procedure ...

Pharmacological Inhibition of β Myosin II Disrupts Sarcomere Assembly in Human iPSC‐Derived Cardiac Myocytes

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sarcomeres are the fundamental contractile units of striated muscle. The functional roles of the cardiac‐specific myosin heavy chains, MYH6 (α myosin II) and MYH7 (β myosin II) during sarcomere assembly remain controversial. To address this, we utilized a selective MYH7 inhibitor, mavacamten, in combination with siRNA‐mediated knockdown of ...
