Aims and Objectives New electrophysiology tools like intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) might help to minimize early detect complications during cardiac ablation procedures. The aim of the study was assess utility vascular safety ICE catheter complex arrhythmias in a medium‐volume training center. Methods Prospective, observational consisted consecutive patients who underwent catheter‐based arrhythmias. All procedures were performed using three‐dimensional electro‐anatomical mapping routine...
Abstract Aims Age, sex, and cardiovascular disease have been linked to thromboembolic complications poorer outcomes in COVID-19. We hypothesize that CHADS2 CHA2DS2-VASc scores may predict events mortality Methods results COVID-19 hospitalized patients with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection from 1 March 20 April 2020 who completed at least 1-month follow-up or died were studied. calculated. Given the worse prognosis of male COVID-19, a modified score (CHA2DS2-VASc-M) which point was given...
Fluoroscopy is necessary to implant cardioverter defibrillators using the conventional approach. Modern electroanatomic navigation systems allow visualization of multiple catheters and, as they are capable rendering precise geometrical reconstructions cardiac chambers, have been used for fluoroscopy-free electrophysiological procedures. The aim our study was assess feasibility non-fluoroscopic implants a three-dimensional system.The NavX system create virtual anatomies heart chambers and...
The efficacy of catheter-based ablation techniques to treat atrial fibrillation is limited not only by recurrences this arrhythmia but also, and less importantly, new-onset organized tachycardias. incidence such tachycardias depends on the type duration baseline specially technique which was used during index procedure. It has been repeatedly reported that more extensive left surface ablated, higher exact origin pathologic substrate these trachycardias fully understood may result from...
Abstract Introduction Impedance drop has been employed as a surrogate marker for lesion formation with its magnitude correlated to size in in-vitro studies. The Lesion Size Index (LSI), and algorithm from Abbott Medical, serves predictor during radiofrequency (RF) ablation. While this formula integrates contact force (CF), duration power, it currently leaks impedance information. new module of Ensite Cardiac Mapping system (Abbot) is capable measuring the "filtered" each RF lesion,...
Chronic use of Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors (ACEi) and aldosterone-receptor blockers (ARB) is not associated with worse outcomes in patients COVID-19. However, evidence on the impact their discontinuation during hospital admission scarce. Our aim was to determine whether withdrawal ACEi, ARB mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA) all-cause mortality a real-life large cohort SARS-CoV-2 infection.Observational study from referral center 1 March 2020 20 April 2020....
Abstract Background Accurate identification of slow pathway for the AVNRT ablation is important to achieve successful result and avoid complications mainly AV nodal block. There were some developments produce precise image locate this such as identify low voltage bridge (LVB) using electro-anatomical mapping visualization direct capture (DCSP). The peak frequency (PF) associated with bipolar EGMs a novel parameter which may serve distinguish near filed (NF) from far field (FF)...
Abstract Introduction Effective pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is the cornerstone of AF ablation, and conduction block from atrium to veins (PV) accepted method demonstrate it. However, far-field electrograms may make challenging establish whether PVI has been achieved. Purpose This study aimed evaluate peak frequency (PF) mapping can effectively identify in superior PVs following a redo procedure. Methods Left PV activation voltage bipolar 3D electroanatomical maps were generated using...
Abstract Background Successful ablation of left atrium macroreentrant tachycardia (LAMRT) has advanced significantly, benefiting from an enhanced understanding reentrant mechanisms and technological innovations. However, challenges like difficult inductions the presence multiple coexistent LAMRTs can complicate mapping, potentially resulting in recurrences during follow-up. Consequently, there is a growing need for strategies that focus on pinpointing critical isthmus conduction (CIC) LAMRT...
Unknown cardioembolic sources are frequent causes of cryptogenic stroke. We analyzed the risk atrial fibrillation (AF) or high burden ectopic activity (HBEA) in patients with stroke, assessing function and 1-year outcomes.
