Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a global pandemic that wreaking havoc on the health and economy of much human civilization. Electrophysiologists have been impacted personally professionally by this catastrophe. In joint article from representatives Heart Rhythm Society, American College Cardiology, Association, we identify potential risks exposure to patients, allied healthcare staff, industry representatives, hospital administrators.

Cardiac physiologic pacing (CPP), encompassing cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and conduction system (CSP), has emerged as a strategy that may mitigate or prevent the development of heart failure (HF) in patients with ventricular dyssynchrony pacing-induced cardiomyopathy. This clinical practice guideline is intended to provide guidance on indications for CRT HF CPP pacemaker HF, patient selection, pre-procedure evaluation preparation, implant procedure management, follow-up...
Background Abnormal P‐wave indices (PWIs)—reflecting underlying left atrial abnormality—are associated with increased risk of stroke independent fibrillation. We assessed whether abnormal PWIs are incident dementia and greater cognitive decline, fibrillation ischemic stroke. Methods Results included 13 714 participants (mean age, 57±6 years; 56% women; 23% black) who were followed for through the end 2015. (Abnormal terminal force in lead V1, ≥4000 μV×ms), axis (>75° or <0°), prolonged...
Orthotropic heart transplantation remains the most effective therapy for patients with end-stage failure, a median survival of ≈13 years. Yet, number complications are observed after orthotropic transplantation, including atrial and ventricular arrhythmias. Several factors contribute to arrhythmias, such as autonomic denervation, effect surgical technique, acute chronic rejection, transplant vasculopathy among others. To minimize risk future bicaval technique minimizing ischemic time current...
Abstract Background Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a common arrhythmia in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction but its incidence, predictors, and significance have not been determined preserved (HFpEF). Methods We performed retrospective review of arrhythmias two cohorts patients an HFpEF diagnosis. Patients cohort 1 (n = 40) underwent routine surveillance 14‐day ambulatory electrocardiogram (ECG) monitor. 2 85) had cardiac pacemakers device interrogations. Results In 1, 13 (32.5%)...
While early enteral nutrition is generally preferred in critically ill patients, the optimal timing of feeding among refractory cardiac arrest patients unknown. We examined association between and patient survival safety outcomes with out-of-hospital (OHCA) who were treated extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR).We performed a retrospective analysis 142 consecutive presenting OHCA due to ventricular fibrillation or tachycardia ECPR targeted temperature management (TTM)....
Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation improves outcomes after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. However, bleeding and thrombosis are common complications. We aimed to describe the incidence predictors of their association with in-hospital mortality.
Sodium nitroprusside is the preferred agent for treatment of high blood pressure during acute aortic syndrome if remains elevated after heart rate control with beta-blockers. The increasing cost sodium in USA led us to assess efficacy and safety intravenous clevidipine, a calcium channel blocker quick onset action, short half-life significantly lower costs than nitroprusside, patients presenting syndrome.We performed retrospective chart review consecutive admitted Cleveland Clinic Cardiac...
Background: The role of cancer-specific factors for ischemic stroke and mortality in patients with cancer atrial fibrillation (AF) is unknown. We evaluated the utility a previously validated risk tool venous thromboembolism (VTE) outpatients [Khorana score (KS)] predicting AF. Methods: conducted retrospective cohort study AF at Cleveland Clinic from 2008 to 2014. Outcomes, CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc, KS scores were calculated date diagnosis. Prognostic identified Fine Gray regression (for stroke)...
To compare the complication rates associated with carotid endarterectomy (CEA) versus artery stenting (CAS).Carotid stenosis is a well-known cause of stroke and increased mortality. The safety revascularization may be related to symptom status, medical comorbidities, use embolic protection devices, as well operator experience these factors vary across patient populations within single operating center.We retrospectively analyzed patients admitted our hospital for between January 1, 2007...
Immune-mediated coronary spasm, called Kounis syndrome (KS), is not rare but underdiagnosed. In this report, we present a case of KS induced by iodinated contrast resulting in cardiac arrest, requiring temporary mechanical circulatory support. We show angiographic evidence and outline commonly associated clinical features that may predict KS. (Level Difficulty: Beginner.).
Objective: To assess the impact of a 1-hour communication skills workshop highlighting “ask more and summarize technique” (AMST) to teach residents an effective way respond emotionally charged questions. Methods: From December 2015 January 2017, on inpatient oncology or palliative medicine rotation attended mandatory AMST involving short introduction technique followed by practice. A survey (S1) was administered during first session their self-reported attitudes practices. follow-up (S2)...
The role of hypothermia in post-arrest neuroprotection is controversial. Animal studies suggest potential benefits with lower temperatures, but high-fidelity ECPR models evaluating temperatures below 30 °C are lacking.
