Electrocardiogram criteria for left bundle branch block (LBBB) inadequately predict left ventricular electrical dyssynchrony, complicating cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) candidate selection.
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is an inherited arrhythmia disorder associated with lethal arrhythmias. Most CPVT cases are caused by inherited variants in the gene…
The occurrence of conduction disturbances (CDs) remains the most frequent complication of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). However, little is known about the timing of…
Pulsed field ablation (PFA)-induced electroporation is an application of high-energy, direct-current shocks on myocardium, albeit at a considerably lower current density that decreases the risks…
Data regarding the effects of pulsed field ablation (PFA) on atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) are limited.
Current epicardial ablation technologies are limited by the inability to create adequate depth lesions and risk of collateral injury to extracardiac structures.
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI)-dependent atrial flutter requires ablation of the tricuspid annulus overlying the right coronary artery (RCA). While considered safe, reports…
Pulsed-field ablation (PFA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) is non-inferior to radiofrequency ablation (RFA) regarding efficacy. However, data on readmission rates have not yet been compared.
A 65-year-old man with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy and left bundle branch block had a resynchronization implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (Claria MRI Quad CRT-D, Medtronic Inc, Moundsview, MN) implanted…
Late gadolinium enhancement-cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) identifies structural properties associated with ventricular tachycardia (VT) but lacks functional information. Non-invasive identification of slow conduction regions using…
Intravascular hemolysis (IH) as collateral damage from pulsed field ablation (PFA) has been described in in-vitro studies but was not reported as a major safety…
