A software robot has proved to be faster than doctors at detecting side effects during a drug treatment for cardiac ...

AI-Guided Cardiac Ablation in combination with pulmonary vein isolation was superior to the standard of care in the treatment of Persistent ...

Binge drinking and possibly, moderate alcohol intake, may trigger atrial fibrillation. Caffeine intake does not appear to be a trigger; although, some doctors still recommend that patients with atrial ...

Dr. Lakkireddy discusses climate change, high school mandated education on cardiopulmonary resuscitation, important trials impacting atrial fibrillation including PROMPT-AF and ARREST-AF, and more.

Seizure-related cardiac arrhythmias are frequently reported and have been implicated as potential pathomechanisms of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP). We attempted to identify clinical ...

Pacemaker implantation for tachycardia–bradycardia syndrome was required as well as ablation for atrial flutter, and the patient underwent a total of four DC cardioversions. Sleep studies showed ...

Aberrant activation of the sympathetic nervous system can induce heterogeneous changes with arrhythmogenic potential which can result in atrial tachycardia, atrial tachyarrhythmias and atrial ...

Primary efficacy outcome was time to first recurrence of sustained (>30 s) symptomatic atrial arrhythmia (AF/AFL/atrial tachycardia) at 12 months as assessed by continuous monitoring with an ...

Figure 3. Twelve-lead ECG tracing during stress test shows the typical aspect of bidirectional ventricular tachycardia characterized by 180° alternating QRS axis on a beat-to-beat basis, with a right ...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac dysrhythmia encountered in practice. It is currently estimated that AF affects approximately 2% of the general population; however, the ...

Consumer-grade smartphone-paired devices and smartwatches have very high sensitivity and specificity for atrial fibrillation. The specificity for arrhythmias with regular R-R intervals is very poor.

Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is the most common form of irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia). People with AFib have many treatment options, including medications and medical procedures. However ...
