The sympathetic autonomic nervous system plays a major role in arrhythmia development and maintenance. Historical preclinical studies describe preferential increases cardiac tone upon selective stimulation of the subclavian ansae (SA), nerve cord encircling artery. This study sought to define, for first time, functional anatomy physiology SA humans using percutaneous approach. authors prospectively recruited patients undergoing catheter ablation paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) under...
Abstract Aim Evaluate the novel PolarX Cryoballoon in atrial fibrillation (AF) catheter ablation through a propensity-matched comparison with Arctic Front Advance (AFA). The aim was also to identify cryoablation metrics that are predictive of successful pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) Cryoballoon. Methods and results This prospective multi-centre study included patients underwent for AF. All PVI reconnection assessed after 30-min waiting period adenosine. Safety, efficacy, were compared...
The Heliostar™ ablation system is a novel RF balloon technology with an integrated three-dimensional mapping system. Here, we describe our early experience and procedural outcomes using this for atrial fibrillation catheter ablation.
Abstract Objective To assess the utility and frequency of use Nightingale Communication Method, during early operational phase Hospital London (NHL) 4000-bed field hospital’s intensive care unit. Design Survey-based cross-sectional assessment. Setting The unit at hospital. Participants Staff working in clinical area therefore requiring full personal protective equipment (PPE). Intervention Survey all staff members sampled from a single shift Hospital. This investigated perceived actual...
Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) contributes to cardiovascular complications including arrhythmias due high inflammatory surge. Nevertheless, the common types of arrhythmia amongst severe COVID-19 is not well described. New onset atrial fibrillation(NOAF) frequentlyseen in critically ill patients and therefore we aim assess incidence NOAF COVID -19and its association with prognosis.This a retrospective multicentre study 109 consecutive admitted intensive care units (ICU) confirmed...
Non bacterial thrombotic endocarditis presenting as a stroke is rare presentation result of an underlying occult ovarian clear cell adenocarcinoma. Embolic events secondary to non are potentially life-threatening condition if not diagnosed and treated promptly. High clinical suspicion for neoplasm one the key elements be considered in management endocarditis. Systemic anticoagulation will treat well prevent further thromboembolic events.

In ambulatory patients with complete heart block (CHB), dual-chamber (DDD) pacing confers physiological benefits versus single-chamber (VVI) pacing, however, the impact on mortality is disputed. Nonagenarians constitute an expanding proportion of pacemaker recipients, yet data device selection and outcomes are limited, especially in emergency situations. nonagenarians emergent CHB, we compared clinical characteristics receiving VVI DDD pacemakers. Cox proportional-hazards analysis examined...
To investigate the accuracy of three non-invasive blood pressure (BP) devices in atrial fibrillation (AF) compared with invasive arterial BP.
Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: Foundation. Main source(s): Heart Foundation Background Same-day discharge following atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation is increasingly common. ProGlide device suture-mediated vascular closure (PD) offers a technique that may expedite mobilisation large-bore (>12F) venous access. The utility PD cryoablation AF has not been reported. Purpose We sought to evaluate haemostasis and early ambulation outcomes in patients receiving...
The risk factors for developing pacing induced left ventricular dysfunction (LVD) in patients with high burden of right (RVP) is poorly understood. Therefore, the present study, we aimed to assess determinants LVD.Our data were retrospectively collected from 146 RVP > 40% who underwent generator change (GC) or cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) upgrade between 2016 and 2019 had ejection fraction (EF) ≥50% at initial implant.A total 75 CRT due LVD (EF < 50%) 71 preserved LV function ≥ a...
