Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) using very high-power short-duration (vHPSD) radiofrequency (RF) ablation proved to be safe and effective. However, vHPSD applications result in shallower lesions that might not always transmural. Multidetector computed tomography-derived left wall thickness (LAWT) maps could enable a thickness-guided switching from the standard-power mode. The aim of this randomized trial was compare safety, efficacy, efficiency...
Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has led to a fast and radical transformation in social, economic, healthcare networks. COVID-19 outbreak may thus have profound indirect consequences on clinical presentation management of patients with ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Aim this study was assess features STEMI during pandemic. Methods: This single-center, prospective from regional public service hub Milan included all consecutive admitted our...
Pulmonary vein (PV) antrum isolation proved to be effective for treating persistent atrial fibrillation (PeAF). We sought investigate the results of a personalized approach aimed at adapting ablation index (AI) local left wall thickness (LAWT) in cohort consecutive patients with PeAF.
Abstract Aims Late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) detects myocardial scarring, a risk factor for ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The LGE-CMR distinguishes core, borderzone (BZ) fibrosis, and BZ channels, crucial components of re-entry circuits. We studied how scar architecture affects inducibility electrophysiological traits VA HCM. Methods results correlated composition with programmed stimulation-inducible features using LGE...
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact edge‐to‐edge PMVR on short and mid‐term clinical outcomes in patients with CS severe MR. Background Severe mitral regurgitation (MR) setting cardiogenic shock (CS) is associated three times higher risk 1‐year mortality. In refractory CS, percutaneous valve repair (PMVR) can be a potential therapeutic option. Methods We retrospectively included consecutive concomitant MR treated MitraClip® system. defined according criteria...
Cardioneuroablation (CNA) is a catheter-based intervention for recurrent vasovagal syncope (VVS) that consists in the modulation of parasympathetic cardiac autonomic nervous system. This survey aims to provide comprehensive overview current CNA utilization Europe.
Structured Abstract Background and Aims Electrical reconnections between pulmonary veins (PVs) the left atrium (LA) are frequently responsible for atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrences after vein isolation (PVI). Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT)-derived images can be post-processed to detect intramyocardial fat (inFAT) by signal radiodensity thresholding. The role of inFAT on PV-LA remains unknown. aim this study was analyze relationship localization at pre-procedural MDCT-derived...
BACKGROUND: The safety of subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD) recipients who lead active lifestyles and engage in recreational sports is unknown. We aimed to evaluate the association between lifestyle occurrence arrhythmia- device-related complications, appropriate inappropriate shocks S-ICD recipients. METHODS: assessed a cohort young-adult (15–65 years) patients, evaluated their physical activity with IPAQ (International Physical Activity Questionnaire), on shocks....
The implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) is a life-saving therapy in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) at risk of sudden cardiac death. Implantable complications are concern. subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD) does not use transvenous leads and expected to reduce complications. However, it provide bradycardia anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP). aim this study was compare appropriate inappropriate interventions, complications, disease-related adverse events mortality between HCM...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in adult population and catheter ablation has emerged as an important rhythm-control strategy cardiac procedure performed worldwide. The antiarrhythmic drugs have demonstrated moderate efficacy long-term maintenance of sinus rhythm; moreover, they are often not tolerated associated with adverse events. Catheter proven to be effective treating AF, although outcomes been significantly less favorable persistent AF than paroxysmal. current...
To non-invasively characterize, by means of late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR), scar differences, and potential variables associated with ventricular tachycardia (VT) occurrence in chronic post-myocardial infarction (MI) patients.A case-control study was designed through retrospective LGE-CMR data analysis post-MI patients (i) consecutively referred for VT substrate ablation after a first episode (n = 66) (ii) from control group 84) no arrhythmia evidence. The...
