An Efficient Shock Advice Algorithm based on K-nearest Neighbors for Automated External Defibrillators [PDF]
Shockable rhythms, namely ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia, are the main cause of sudden cardiac arrests, which can be detected quickly by the automated external defibrillator (AED) devices. In this paper, a simple but effective algorithm is proposed as the shock advice algorithm applied in AED.

Autopsy findings in cases of fatal COVID‐19 vaccine‐induced myocarditis
Abstract COVID‐19 vaccines have been linked to myocarditis, which, in some circumstances, can be fatal. This systematic review aims to investigate potential causal links between COVID‐19 vaccines and death from myocarditis using post‐mortem analysis.

Bidirectional Ventricular Tachycardia? [PDF]
A 65‐year‐old woman was admitted to the hospital because of a syncopal episode with documented transient complete atrioventricular block. A DDD pacemaker was implanted. Post implantation, the patient was diagnosed with bidirectional ventricular tachycardia. Analysis of the arrhythmia and differential diagnosis is performed.

An automated near-real time computational method for induction and treatment of scar-related ventricular tachycardias [PDF]
Catheter ablation is currently the only curative treatment for scar-related ventricular tachycardias (VTs). However, not only are ablation procedures long, with relatively high risk, but success rates are punitively low, with frequent VT recurrence. Personalized in-silico approaches have the opportunity to address these limitations.

Association of COPD with adverse outcomes in heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction
Abstract We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to detect the impact of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on the prognosis of heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We systematically screened eligible literature from three electronic databases, PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library, up to April 2023.

Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...

Ventricular tachycardia associated with lacosamide co-medication in drug-resistant epilepsy. [PDF]
We report a case of sustained ventricular tachycardia following the initiation of lacosamide as adjunctive epilepsy treatment. A 49-year-old male with intractable frontal lobe seizures experienced severe ventricular tachycardia following the addition of ...

Ventricular tachycardia in children [PDF]
Thirty-eight patients aged 1 to 20 years (mean 11.2) were evaluated because of recurrent ventricular tachycardia. The follow-up period ranged from 0.5 to 12 years (mean 6). The patients were separated into two groups according to the presence or absence of known structural heart disease.

Abstract Aims The prognostic role of high‐sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs‐cTnT) as a biomarker in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) has yet to be fully determined, especially when compared with B‐type natriuretic peptide (BNP). Methods and Results In this post‐hoc analysis of the ILLUMINATE‐CS (ILLUstration of the Management and prognosIs of ...
