Device-detected atrial high-rate episodes (AHREs) are arrhythmias detected by implanted cardiac devices. AHREs resemble fibrillation but rare and brief. Whether the occurrence of in patients without (as documented on a conventional electrocardiogram [ECG]) justifies initiation anticoagulants is not known. Download PDF Research Summary. We conducted an event-driven, double-blind, double-dummy, randomized trial involving 65 years age or older who had lasting for at least 6 minutes one...
Abstract Aims Oesophageal fistula represents a rare but dreadful complication of atrial fibrillation catheter ablation. Data on its incidence, management, and outcome are sparse. Methods results This international multicentre registry investigates the characteristics oesophageal fistulae after treatment by A total 553 729 ablation procedures (radiofrequency: 62.9%, cryoballoon: 36.2%, other modalities: 0.9%) were performed, at 214 centres in 35 countries. In 78 138 patients [0.025%,...
Abstract Aims Accessory pathway (AP) ablation is a standard procedure for the treatment of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW). Twelve-lead electrocardiogram (ECG)-based delta wave analysis essential predicting sites. Previous algorithms have shown to be complex, time-consuming, and unprecise. We aimed retrospectively develop prospectively validate new, simple ECG-based algorithm considering patients’ heart axis allowing exact localization APs in patients undergoing WPW. Methods results Our...
Catheter ablation is a standard atrial fibrillation (AF) treatment, traditionally using radiofrequency (RF) or cryoablation, which carries the risk of damaging nearby structures. Pulsed field (PFA) offers partly tissue-selective energy application with minimal collateral damage. This study evaluated near-zero fluoroscopy workflow novel VARIPULSE™ catheter, combining advanced mapping for optimized PFA delivery and reduced radiation. Here, we investigate safety, efficiency, effectiveness this...

Methods results STEEER-AF pragmatic designed objectively robustly determine whether guidelines are adhered routine practice evaluate targeted educational for healthcare professionals.

For patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), proper antithrombotic therapy is equivocal. Current guidelines recommend triple therapy, which carries a high risk of bleeding. Recent large trials suggest that dual (DT) novel oral anticoagulant (NOAC) plus P2Y12 inhibitor can be an appropriate alternative, but real-world data for this alternative are scarce and the optimal duration DT has not yet been established. This analysis was performed in...
Abstract Aims Long-term mortality after ablation of typical atrial flutter has been found to be increased two-fold in comparison fibrillation ablations through a period 5 years with unclear mechanism. Methods and results We analysed 189 consecutive patients who underwent for (AFL), which the incidence AF was first manifestation cardiac disease. According clinical standards our centre, routine recommendation evaluate coronary artery disease (CAD) by invasive angiogram or computed tomography...
The preference for using transradial access (TRA) over transfemoral (TFA) in patients requiring percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is based on evidence suggesting that TRA associated with less bleeding and fewer vascular complications, shorter hospital stays, improved quality of life, a potential beneficial effect mortality. We have limited study data comparing the two routes patient population atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing PCI, who particular increased risk bleeding, while AF...
Available data on management of atrial flutter in the early postoperative setting after cardiac surgery are scarce. We aimed to investigate safety and efficacy (profile) ablation phase (30 days surgery) a cohort 47 consecutive patients.Between 2007 2016, patients who underwent for typical were retrospectively identified analyzed. Follow-up acquired from patients' records case rehospitalization via follow-up calls.The median age was 69 years, 89% male with LV-EF 55%. CAD present 80.8%...
Abstract Background Carcinoid heart disease is the cardiac manifestation of carcinoid syndrome. There limited research on rhythm management in patients with disease. The association typical atrial flutter and particular poorly described. Case presentation Here we present a case 77-year-old German woman recurrent complicating postoperative course after tricuspid valve replacement its successful long-term control by ablation therapy. Conclusion evidence rare diagnosis Typical repeatedly...

Discontinuation of the inferior vena cava (IVC) is a rare congenital anomaly and most often caused by absence pars hepatica. Additional heterotopias may be present. In these cases, venous blood lower body part drained via azygos vein, which reaches right atrium in upper part. The interventional catheter ablation typical atrial flutter seems uncomplicated unless previously unknown interruption IVC suddenly presents electrophysiologist with challenge.
