Prevalence of Functional Mitral Regurgitation in Patients with Chronic Heart Failure
Secondary or functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is a common problem in patients with chronic heart failure (HF) due to dilated cardiomyopathy, regardless of aetiology.1 FMR results from an imbalance between the closing and the tethering forces that act on the mitral valve leaflets.2,3

Idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias (IVAs) usually originate from the specific anatomical structures. For the past decade, major IVA origins from both endocardial and epicardial sites have been increasingly recognised (see Table 1).1–3 Catheter ablation of IVAs is usually safe and highly successful, but can sometimes be challenging because of the anatomical obstacles. Therefore, understanding the…

Activation and entrainment mapping demonstrated that typical flutter arises from reentry around the tricuspid annulus.1 Criteria to confirm…
