The ESC Guidelines represent the views of and were arrived at after careful consideration available evidence time they written.Health professionals are encouraged to take them fully into account when exercising their clinical judgement.The guidelines do not, however, override individual responsibility health make appropriate decisions in circumstances patients, consultation with that patient, where necessary patient's guardian or carer.It is also professional's verify rules regulations...
Guidelines summarize and evaluate all currently available evidence on a particular issue with the aim of assisting physicians in selecting best management strategy for an individual patient suffering from given condition, taking into account impact outcome, as well risk–benefit ratio diagnostic or therapeutic means. are no substitutes textbooks. The legal implications medical guidelines have been discussed previously. A large number issued recent years by European Society Cardiology (ESC)...
We conducted this study to determine the feasibility of an abbreviated therapeutic approach Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome or paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, in which diagnosis is established and radiofrequency ablation carried out during a single electrophysiologic test.
The purpose of this study was to report the results and complications radiofrequency catheter ablation accessory atrioventricular (AV) connections by using an abbreviated approach aimed at minimizing duration procedure.Two hundred fifty consecutive patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome or paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia involving a concealed AV connection underwent use current. In 179 250 patients, performed time initial electrophysiology test. Two thirty-five had one 15 two...
Background: Optimal timing for catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia is an important unresolved issue. There are no randomized trials evaluating the benefit after first implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) shock. Methods: We conducted a 2-phase, prospective, multicenter, clinical trial. Patients with ischemic or nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy and primary secondary prevention indication ICD were enrolled in initial observational phase until appropriate shock (phase A)....
Ten consecutive patients with recurrent episodes of symptomatic, idiopathic, sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT) originating in the right ventricle underwent an attempt at catheter ablation tachycardia. There were seven women and three men, a mean age 39 +/- 14 years (+/- SD). None had any evidence structural heart disease. The VT left bundle branch block configuration inferior axis each patient, cycle length was 313 75 msec. Based on methods induction response to verapamil,...
Catheter ablation of accessory atrioventricular (AV) connections has been demonstrated to be effective in more than 85% patients. One the risks this procedure is radiation exposure during fluoroscopic imaging necessary guide catheter manipulation. The objective present study was measure received by patients and physicians radiofrequency estimate resultant somatic genetic risks.Radiation measured attempts at AV 31 consecutive Radiation using thermoluminescent sensors placed on patient...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common comorbidity in bradycardia patients. Advanced pacemakers feature atrial preventive pacing and antitachycardia (DDDRP) managed ventricular (MVP), which minimizes unnecessary right pacing. We evaluated whether DDDRP MVP might reduce mortality, morbidity, or progression to permanent AF when compared with standard dual-chamber (Control DDDR).In randomized, parallel, single-blind, multi-centre trial we enrolled 1300 patients previous tachyarrhythmias, whom...
The goal of this study was to develop a risk score model for patients with Brugada syndrome (BrS).Risk stratification in BrS is significant challenge due the low event rates and conflicting evidence.A multicenter international cohort no previous cardiac arrest used evaluate role 16 proposed clinical or electrocardiogram (ECG) markers predicting ventricular arrhythmias (VAs)/sudden death (SCD) during follow-up. Predictive were incorporated into model, validated by using out-of-sample...
BACKGROUND Catheter ablation of accessory atrioventricular (AV) connections using radiofrequency current has been demonstrated to be effective in the majority patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome or paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia involving a concealed AV connection. However, electrogram criteria have not established guide attempts at catheter ablation. METHODS AND RESULTS The characteristics local electrograms recorded successful and unsuccessful sites were determined 132...
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to describe a new technique for catheter ablation the atrioventricular junction using radiofrequency energy delivered in left ventricle. METHODS AND RESULTS Catheter (AV) positioned across tricuspid annulus unsuccessful eight patients with mean +/- SD age 51 19 years who had AV nodal reentry tachycardia (three patients), orthodromic concealed midseptal accessory pathway, atrial tachycardia, flutter (two or fibrillation. Before attempts at junction,...

A ideia contribuir para comunidades vítimas conflitos possam se organizar melhor pela sua própria recuperação, contando a orientação supervisão assistentes técnicos habilitados. baseia projetos casas populares...
A depressão durante a gestação é um desafio clínico significativo, com impactos tanto para mãe quanto o desenvolvimento fetal. O escitalopram, inibidor seletivo da recaptação de serotonina (ISRS), amplamente utilizado devido à sua eficácia e perfil segurança. No entanto, passagem placentária levanta preocupações sobre potenciais efeitos adversos neonatais. Esta revisão integrativa teve como objetivo analisar os do uso escitalopram em desfechos maternos pesquisa foi conduzida nas bases dados...
Objective: To determine the incidence of loss consciousness occurring in association with shocks delivered by automatic implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (AICD) patients who had undergone implantation as treatment for ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation. Design: Cohort study. Setting: Two major tertiary medical care facilities. Patients: A total 180 an AICD Intervention: Implantation that only high-energy shock. Measurements: During a mean (± SD) follow-up period 16 ± 12 months,...
We present the case of a 60-year-old woman with Brugada syndrome, permanent type 1 electrocardiographic pattern, who had previously received an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator. She suffered frequent syncopal episodes and multiple appropriate shocks (around five per month) due to polymorphic ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation, refractory quinidine therapy. Combined epicardial endocardial electroanatomical mapping was performed view substrate ablation. An area abnormal...
Ripple mapping (RM) is an alternative approach to activation of atrial tachycardia (AT) that avoids electrogram annotation. We tested whether RM superior conventional annotation based local time (LAT) for AT diagnosis in a randomized and multicenter study.Patients with were either or LAT using the CARTO3v4 CONFIDENSE system. Operators determined assigned 3D arm alone, before being permitted single confirmatory entrainment manuever if needed. A planned ablation lesion set was defined. The...
