Pre-Excited Atrial Fibrillation Degenerating Into Ventricular Fibrillation Captured by an Automated External Defibrillator. [PDF]
J ArrhythmAn automated external defibrillator (AED) captured the real‐time transition from pre‐excited atrial fibrillation to ventricular fibrillation in a previously undiagnosed patient with WPW syndrome. This case highlights the malignant potential of rapidly conducting accessory pathways.

Do Stimulants Promote Arrhythmic Risk: Insights From a Human-Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocyte Model. [PDF]
J ArrhythmAt clinically relevant plasma concentrations, stimulant medications produced minimal effects on conduction velocity but modulated automaticity and repolarization in a hiPSC‐derived cardiomyocyte (hiPSC‐CM) model. These findings provide a foundation for future investigations of stimulant‐associated cardiac safety and support the utility of hiPSC‐CM ...

Iatrogenic ventricular fibrillation in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome
Revista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2022 Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is the most common manifestation of ventricular pre-excitation syndrome and is mostly found in individuals with no structural heart disease. Although the risk of malignant arrhythmias is low, sudden cardiac death (SCD)

Artificial intelligence in orthopaedics should be built with surgeons, not just for them!
Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.Abstract Surgical artificial intelligence (AI) is typically validated on one patient population and then deployed unchanged into another, without surgeon input into its design. AI in orthopaedics should be built with surgeons, not simply for them: Surgeons should hold shared authority over the clinical question, data curation, validation ...

Aborted sudden cardiac death as first presentation of Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome
Revista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2013 Sudden cardiac death (SCD) can be the first clinical manifestation of Wolff–Parkinson–White (WPW) syndrome.Catheter ablation of accessory pathways is now a safe and effective procedure, and is widely recommended in patients with WPW syndrome.

Atrial fibrillation with WolffParkinson-White syndrome: A case report
Medicine Science, 2017 Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a conduction disturbance characterized by the presence of an accessory pathway between the atria and the ventricles. The accessory pathway predisposes patients to tachyarrhythmias and sudden cardiac death.
