Most single-shot pulsed field ablation (PFA) catheters require extensive repositioning for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), posing a challenge for obtaining contiguous, durable lesions.
Heterogeneities in ventricular repolarization contribute significantly to the genesis of ventricular fibrillation (VF). Although clinical arrhythmias are spontaneously triggered by premature ventricular complexes, these triggers…
Epicardial Marshall bundles (MBs) are frequently used in left atrial tachycardias (LATs) after atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation with pulmonary vein isolation and substrate modification.
Challenges/opportunities remain for improvement of pulsed field ablation (PFA) for atrial fibrillation (AF).
Increasing utilization of Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) to treat atrial fibrillation (AF) has led to concerns related to tissue contact, hemolysis, and electroanatomic mapping integration.…
Handheld electro-shockers are commonly used for self-defense and possibly interact with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs).
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an age-related disorder closely linked to autonomic nervous system dysfunction. Neurofilament light chain (NFL) protein is a biomarker for neurodegenerative diseases.
Access to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) remains limited for many patients with cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIEDs), despite evidence demonstrating safety under appropriate conditions. This…
Knowledge of lead biomechanics in a hypertrophied interventricular septum (IVS) may improve success rate of left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) in these patients.
Catheter ablation has emerged as a promising treatment to prevent ventricular fibrillation (VF) in Brugada syndrome. However, evidence from a prospective, randomized clinical trial is…
Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP), which includes true left bundle branch pacing (LBBP) and left ventricular septal pacing (LVsP), has become increasingly popular as…
