A New Era in Zero X-ray Ablation
Author(s): Giuseppe Mascia , Marzia Giaccardi Added: 3 years ago
X-rays used in interventional cardiology are proven (class I) carcinogens, and the electrophysiology community should make every effort to give “the right imaging exam, with the right dose, to the right patient”.1 This may be an effective strategy for the primary prevention of cancer for physicians, medical staff and patients (particularly children, young adults and women).2 The impact of X-rays… View more

Catheter ablation (CA) is a widely used first-line treatment for AF. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) have shown its superiority to pharmacological treatment in terms of symptom control, rhythm control and mortality in selected patients; observational studies have also suggested a decreased risk of stroke.1,2 Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is the standard endpoint, but studies have reported… View more

Author(s): Rahul K Mukherjee , Louisa O’Neill , Mark D O’Neill Added: 3 years ago
Recurrent ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients who have an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) with subsequent shocks is associated with reduced quality of life and an adverse prognosis. Pharmacological treatments are associated with significant side-effects. Catheter ablation has been used to reduce the number of ICD therapies in patients with ischaemic and non-ischaemic… View more

Electrophysiology & Arrhythmia
Author(s): Ling Zhang , Yuemei Hou , Sunny S Po Added: 3 years ago
Atrial fibrillation(AF) is the most frequently encountered arrhythmia in clinical practice and has become an emerging epidemic. AF is associated with increased cardiovascular mortality and morbidy such as stroke.1–3 Over 2.3 million people in the US are affected by AF: it is estimated that AF will affect more than 15 million Americans by 2050.3 The traditional risk factors implicated in the… View more

Historical Precedents Brugada syndrome (BrS) was first described more than 25 years ago as a clinical entity in people resuscitated from sudden cardiac death due to documented VF.1 The original 1992 case series described eight patients without apparent structural heart disease who all had VF associated with persistent coved ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads.1 In 1996 this… View more
