To collect information on the use of Reveal implantable loop recorder (ILR) in patient care pathway and to investigate its effectiveness diagnosis unexplained recurrent syncope everyday clinical practice.Prospective, multicentre, observational study conducted 2006-2009 10 European countries Israel. Eligible patients had or pre-syncope. Subjects received a Plus, DX XT. Follow up was until first recurrence syncopal event leading for ≥1 year. In course study, were evaluated by an average three...
AimsThe National Swedish Pacemaker and Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) Registry collects prospective data on all pacemaker ICD implants in Sweden. We aimed to report the 2012 findings of concerning electrical devices implantation rates changes over time, 1 year complications, long-term device longevity patient survival.
Background— Single-center reports on percutaneous transluminal septal myocardial ablation (PTSMA) in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy have shown considerable differences outcome. Methods and Results— We report the long-term outcome of 313 PTSMA procedures performed 279 aged 59±14 years from 1999 to 2010 4 Scandinavian centers. Sixty-nine percent had ≥1 comorbidity at baseline. The median (interquartile range) left ventricular outflow tract gradient rest was reduced 58 mm...
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) improves prognosis in patients with moderate-to-severe heart failure, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, and wide QRS complexes. However, CRT may be under-utilized women data on long-term follow-up are still scarce. The aim was to investigate mortality hospitalization prognostic impact of gender after CRT. Data 619 consecutive (19% women) that received at a single centre between 1998 2008 were collected from electronic medical records national...
AimsAir pollution has been associated with ventricular arrhythmias in patients implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) for exposure periods of 24–48 h. Only two studies have investigated <24 We aimed to explore such effects during the 2 and 24 preceding hours as well relation distance from place event air monitor.
Objective Congenital heart block may develop in the fetuses of Ro/SSA-positive and La/SSB-positive mothers. Recurrence rates only 10–20% despite persisting maternal antibodies indicate that additional factors are critical for establishment block. The authors investigated influence other fetal on development a Swedish population-based cohort. Methods gender, age, parity time birth was analysed 145 families, including Ro/La-positive (n=190) Ro/La-negative (n=165) pregnancies. Results There...
Objectives. Using a patient and gender perspective, this study evaluates the experiences perspectives of referral for paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT), symptoms, Health-Related Quality Life (HRQOL) functional impairment before six months after ablation. Design. This prospective includes 214 (109 women) patients with PSVT who completed questionnaires ablation addressing patterns, duration arrhythmia, socioeconomic status, HRQOL, impairment. Result. Women had longer history...
Abstract OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the long-term risk of permanent pacemaker implantation following Cox-maze IV (CMIV) and concurrent mitral valve surgery. METHODS A retrospective, nationwide, registry-based analysis was conducted on postoperative in 397 patients with symptomatic insufficiency atrial fibrillation who underwent CMIV surgery Sweden between 2009 2017. They were compared to a registry group 346 without surgical ablation during 2014–2017. The follow-up ended September 30,...
Atrioventricular synchronous pacing exerts beneficial effects, including reduction of left ventricular outflow tract gradients, in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. The Pacing Cardiomyopathy study was initiated to explore the effects a double-blind randomized crossover fashion. aims were ascertain controlled and rule out placebo effect by pacing. This paper deals outcome on quality life during 1 year follow-up.Quality evaluated Karolinska questionnaire, validated for...
The objective of the study was to investigate antigen specificity and occurrence individual autoantibodies in mothers children diagnosed with atrioventricular (AV) block a nation-wide setting. Patients AV detected before 15 years age were identified using national quality registries as well network pediatric adult cardiologists rheumatologists at six university hospitals Sweden. gross heart malformations, surgically or infectiously induced blocks excluded. Blood samples obtained from...
