Electrophysiology & Arrhythmia
Author(s): Eyal Nof , William G Stevenson , Roy John Added: 3 years ago
Sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) are typically a manifestation of significant structural heart disease and often associated with a high risk of sudden cardiac death. Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) remain the mainstay of therapy for prevention of sudden cardiac death associated with these arrhythmias.1 However, ICDs treat the arrhythmia after… View more

The Convergent AF Ablation Procedure: Evolution of a Multidisciplinary Approach to AF Management
Author(s): Karan Wats , Andy Kiser , Kevin Makati , et al Added: 3 years ago
AF is the most commonly encountered atrial arrhythmia in clinical practice. Restoration of normal sinus rhythm through catheter- and surgically based approaches has been increasingly used as technologies and outcomes have improved.1 Success rates for AF ablation vary greatly depending on the duration of AF (more successful for paroxysmal AF, less successful in persistent AF and even less so for… View more

HRS 22: LBBAP for Coronary Lead Failure or Non-Response to BIV-CRT
Author(s): Pugazhendhi Vijayaraman Added: 1 year ago
Dr Pugazhendi Vijayaraman (Geisinger Heart Institute, Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, US) joins us from HRS 2022 to discuss the real-world data from an international study assessing the outcomes of rescue LBBAP in patients with coronary sinus lead failure, or those who did not respond to BIV-CRT. Discussion points: 1. Importance of this study 2. Patient cohort, study design and endpoints 3. Key… View more

Limitations in Mapping Ventricular Tachycardia
Author(s): Adam J Graham , Michele Orini , Pier D Lambiase Added: 3 years ago
Recurrent episodes of ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with structural heart disease are associated with increased mortality and morbidity, despite the life-saving benefits of implantable cardiac defibrillators (ICDs).1,2 Because ICD therapies are abortive and do not alter the underlying arrhythmogenic substrate, their reduction becomes important, especially as recurrent shocks can cause… View more

Electrophysiology & Arrhythmia
Author(s): Emmanuel Koutalas , Borislav Dinov , Sergio Richter , et al Added: 3 years ago
Since the introduction of electroanatomical mapping (EAM) into clinical practice in 1997, remarkable progress has been made in catheter infrastructure, signal recording and processing, catheter guidance and visualisation and simultaneous real-time depiction and processing of different types of critical information during an ablation procedure.1 The latter, along with the comprehension of the… View more

Phase I Results from the Solve-CRT Study | cardiac resynchronization therapy
Author(s): Jagmeet P Singh Added: 2 years ago
In this interview, Dr Jagmeet Singh (Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, US) discusses the Phase I results of the Solve-CRT Study presented at ESC's Heart Rhythm Society event in 2021. This study is a multicenter pivotal trial, investigating the safety of the WiSE CRT System in leadless cardiac resynchronization therapy. Questions: 1. Could you briefly remind us… View more

Ultrasound-guided Axillary Vein Puncture in Cardiac Lead Implantation: Time to Move to a New Standard Access?
Author(s): Ana Paula Tagliari , Adriano Nunes Kochi , Bernardo Mastella , et al Added: 3 years ago
Cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs), including permanent pacemakers (PPMs), ICD and CRT devices, are the mainstream therapy for many potentially lethal heart conditions, such as advanced atrioventricular block or sustained ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation. CIEDs can be implanted through endovascular or epicardial routes, with the former used the most because it is less invasive… View more
