EHRA 23: AdaptResponse: AdaptivCRT® Algorithm in Synchronized LV Pacing
Author(s): Bruce Wilkoff Added: 1 year ago
EHRA 23– Dr Bruce Wilkoff (Cleveland Clinic, US) joins us on-site to outline the findings of the AdaptResponse randomized study (NCT02205359). In AdaptResponse, investigators studied the hypothesis that cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) devices which utilised AdaptivCRT® (aCRT) algorithm (Medtronic) had better prognosis in patients with normal atrioventricular conduction and left bundle… View more

CRT is an essential treatment for patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction as it can restore left ventricular (LV) electrical and mechanical synchrony. It has been shown to increase quality of life, improve functional status, reduce hospitalisation, improve LV systolic function and reduce mortality in properly selected patients.1,2 While CRT is an effective therapy, approximately… View more

Catheter ablation has moved from ablation of ‘simple’ substrates like accessory pathways,1 atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardias (AVNRTs)2 and re-entrant or focal tachycardia (of either ventricular or atrial origin)3–5 in recent years to more complex arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular tachycardia (VT) or fibrillation.6–8 Even patients with complex congenital heart disease that may… View more

Unmasking Adenosine: The Purinergic Signalling Molecule Critical to Arrhythmia Pathophysiology and Management
Author(s): Gareth DK Matthews , Andrew Grace Added: 3 years ago
The use of adenosine in cardiology is ubiquitous. From arrhythmia to coronary intervention to cardiac imaging, adenosine is an essential part of everyday practice because of its widespread effects on electrophysiology and the coronary vasculature. Electrophysiologists will be most familiar with adenosine for its use in terminating supraventricular tachycardias (SVTs) that are dependent on the… View more

Heart failure (HF) is a growing and major health burden in western countries. The prevalence of HF is estimated at 1–2 % in the western world, and the incidence approaches 5–10 per 1,000 persons per year.1Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) has been shown in multiplestudies to improve HF symptoms, quality of life and improve survivals.2–6The two landmark studies, Comparison of Medical Therapy… View more

Atrial Flutter, Typical and Atypical: A Review
Author(s): Francisco G Cosio Added: 3 years ago
The term ‘flutter’ was coined to designate the visual and tactile rapid, regular atrial contraction induced by faradic stimulation in animal hearts, in contrast with irregular, vermiform contraction in atrial fibrillation (AF).1,2 On the ECG, flutter was a regular continuous undulation between QRS complexes at a cycle length (CL) of ≤250 ms (≥240 bpm). Slower tachycardias displaying discrete P… View more
