Surgery for Ventricular Tachycardia
The treatment of drug-refractory chronic ventricular tachycardia (VT) has undergone a revolution over the last 50 years. We now have automatic implantable cardioverter defibrillator therapy with pace-terminating capabilities, and catheter ablation of VT has refined mapping and improved methods of lesion generation.

Abstract Aims The prognostic significance of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) severity in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) remains uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the association of LVDD severity and elevated left atrial pressure (eLAP) with patient outcomes in stable, non‐acutely decompensated patients with DCM ...

Just Sinus Bradycardia or Something More Serious?
An asymptomatic 5-year-old girl presented with bradycardia during a routine well-child visit. Further evaluation revealed profound sinus bradycardia, exercise-induced bidirectional ventricular tachycardia, and supraventricular tachycardia.

Abstract Aims The extent of irreversible cardiomyocyte necrosis after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major determinant of residual left ventricular (LV) function and clinical outcome. Cell therapy based on CD34+ cells has emerged as an option to help repair the myocardium and to improve outcomes.

Molecular genetics of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy in South Africa [PDF]
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a heritable disorder characterised by progressive degeneration of the right ventricular myocardium, arrhythmias and an increased risk of sudden death at a young age. Fourteen chromosomal loci have

An Unusual Case of Delayed-Onset Rituximab-Induced Ventricular Tachycardia: A Case Report
Cardiac disease associated with cancer treatment is a common adverse effect that is well-treated with appropriate monitoring. However, some cardiac adverse effects with cancer treatment are not well-understood, in particular rituximab-associated ...

Considerations for drug trials in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a heterogeneous condition with potentially serious manifestations. Management has traditionally comprised therapies to palliate symptoms and implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators to prevent sudden cardiac death. The need for disease‐modifying therapies has been recognized for decades.

Pattern of initiation of monomorphic ventricular tachycardia in recorded intracardiac electrograms [PDF]
Background: By analyzing stored intracardiac electrograms during spontaneous monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT), we examined the patterns of the VT initiation in a group of patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs).

Abstract Background Obesity is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), yet an ‘obesity paradox’ has been observed in various CVD contexts. The impact of obesity on heart failure (HF) patients treated with a wearable cardioverter‐defibrillator (WCD) remains underexplored.
