Despite significant advances in health care over the last 50 years, global cardiovascular disease burden continues to increase with dire implications. It is well known that now leading cause of mortality, resulting approximately one third all deaths globally.1 This chilling statistic projected worsen years come and therefore needs be urgently addressed. Importantly, a large proportion these disease-related being driven by hypertension, risk factor widely present, affecting 30% adults...
Abstract Hypertension is the leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) worldwide. Despite availability of effective antihypertensive medications, control hypertension at a global level dismal, and consequently, CVD burden continues to increase. In response, countries in Latin America Caribbean are implementing HEARTS Americas, community‐based program that focuses on increasing secondary prevention through mitigation. One key pillar implementation standardized treatment protocol...
Abstract Background Persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with high recurrence rates of AF and atypical flutters or tachycardia (AFT) postablation. Laser balloon (LB) ablation the pulmonary vein (PV) ostia has similar efficacy as radiofrequency wide area circumferential (RF‐WACA); however, an approach LB (LB‐WACA) may further improve success rates. Objective To evaluate freedom from tachyarrhythmia (AFT/AF) postablation using RF‐WACA versus LB‐WACA in persistent patients. Methods...
Catheter-based ablation techniques have a well-established role in atrial fibrillation (AF) management. The prevalence and impact of AF is increasing globally, thus mandating an emphasis on improving through innovation. One key area ongoing evolution this field the use laser energy to perform pulmonary vein isolation during catheter ablation. While not as widespread other techniques, such radiofrequency cryoballoon ablation, advancements product design procedural protocols demonstrated...
In light chain amyloidosis, a reduction in dFLC to below 40 mg/l is prerequisite for organ recovery as nearly half of the patients who achieve very good partial haematological responses have improvement function involved organ. We describe patient developed new-onset cardiac amyloidosis despite post-treatment <10 mg/l.Patients with (AL) may develop new involvement achieving remission.In AL response (dFLC mg/l) does not obviate need regular monitoring.
