Background To prevent cardiac collapse and to protect cerebral function, hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass is established before resternotomy. However, ventricular fibrillation under hypothermia facilitates left ventricular distension, which causes ...

ABSTRACT Background Little is known about stroke volume index (SVi) change and its prognostic implication in patients with low‐flow aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing aortic valve replacement (AVR) and conflicting results are present in literature. The aim of this study was to evaluate the postoperative change in SVi and its impact on outcomes in patients

ABSTRACT A 24‐year‐old male with Marfan syndrome was admitted following an episode of ventricular fibrillation (VF) during exercise. He had previously undergone multiple aortic surgical procedures for symptomatic aortic regurgitation and an ascending aortic false aneurysm.

Trends in quantitative methods used for atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia analyses
Background: Improved quantitative and computational research efforts would be useful for better and more accurate analysis of heart arrhythmias, and to target catheter ablation sites.

BACKGROUND Patients who survive life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias are at risk for recurrent arrhythmias. They can be treated with either an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator or antiarrhythmic drugs, but the relative efficacy of these two ...

ABSTRACT Background Electrocardiographic parameters have emerged as valuable noninvasive markers for risk stratification in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Aims This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between R wave peak time (RWPT) and coronary artery disease (CAD) severity, and to assess its prognostic value for in‐hospital major adverse cardiac ...

New model of ventricular fibrillation [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to develop a more efficient and stable model of ventricular fibrillation (VF) in the isolated rabbit heart, because there is not a satisfactory model with this animal. We also observed the effects of increasing extracellular calcium in the stability and reversibility of the arrhythmia.

ABSTRACT Background The use of procedural anticoagulation during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is well established and has been shown to improve clinical outcomes in patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).

ABSTRACT Background Data comparing clinical and hemodynamic outcomes of bioprosthetic valve fracturing (BVF) and “standard”‐postdilatation during valve‐in‐valve transcatheter heart valve implantation (ViV‐TAVI) are lacking. The authors aimed to analyze hemodynamic and clinical outcomes of BVF compared to “standard”‐postdilatation during ViV‐TAVI ...
