Short-coupled ventricular fibrillation represents a distinct phenotype among latent causes of unexplained cardiac arrest: a report from the CASPER registry.

European Heart Journal, 2021
AIMS The term idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF) describes survivors of unexplained cardiac arrest (UCA) without a specific diagnosis after clinical and genetic testing.

Catheter Ablation in End-Stage Heart Failure with Atrial Fibrillation.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2023
BACKGROUND The role of catheter ablation in patients with symptomatic atrial fibrillation and end-stage heart failure is unknown. METHODS We conducted a single-center, open-label trial in Germany that involved patients with symptomatic atrial ...

Verapamil for Control of Ventricular Rate in Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia and Atrial Fibrillation or Flutter: A Double-Blind Randomized Cross-Over Study

, 2020
The effectiveness of verapamil in controlling ventricular rate was evaluated in 20 patients with atrial fibrillation or flutter with a rapid ventricular response (Group 1) and 30 patients with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (Group 2). In Group 1

Ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation

Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy, 2009
Ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation are the most important causes of sudden cardiac death (SCD), particularly in those with structural heart disease and reduced left ventricular function. It is important to distinguish ventricular tachycardia from supraventricular tachycardia.

Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation

American Heart Journal, 1990
A review of the literature dealing with sudden death revealed 19 articles in which ostensibly healthy patients with documented VF unrelated to any known cardiac or noncardiac etiology are reported. Fifty-four patients fulfilling the criteria for idiopathic VF, including 14 patients investigated at our institution, are described.

Ventricular fibrillation threshold

American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1961
The use of single rectangular stimuli, applied directly to the heart surface, has been confirmed as a reliable method for measurement of the ventricular fibrillation threshold (VFT). The following factors which influence reproducibility were investigated: 1) spatial separation of bipolar electrodes, 2) interval between stimuli, and 3) anatomical ...

Idiopathic Ventricular Fibrillation

Herz Kardiovaskuläre Erkrankungen, 2007
Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF) is responsible for a sizable part of sudden cardiac death (SCD). Furthermore, it has a high recurrence rate. Recent publications have shown that IVF is often caused by premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) arising from the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) or the Purkinje system.
