May 26th, 2022 - RESEARCH QUESTION: In syncope patients at least 50 years of age, a strategy of first conducting a tilt table (HUT) will provide an earlier diagnosis at less cost than a strategy of first implanting an implantable loop recorder (ILR). BACKGROUND: S...

May 20th, 2022 - Limited data exists for outcomes in patients undergoing cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) transvenous lead extraction (TLE) without clear indications for device reimplantation. The implantable loop recorder (ILR) may be an effect...

May 4th, 2022 - Adenosine test was proposed as a tool for identification of syncopal patients who benefit from pacemaker implantation. Aim of the study was to assess the relationship between adenosine levels, the outcome of adenosine test and results of implantab...

Apr 9th, 2022 - Patients with left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) are at risk of clinically significant arrhythmias and sudden death. We evaluated whether implantable loop recorders could detect significant arrhythmias that might be missed in these patients dur...

Mar 7th, 2022 - Patients who have ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation at least 48 hours after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have a higher risk of sudden cardiac death. Current guidelines recommend that for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death, pa...

Oct 14th, 2021 - Sleep apnoea affects up to 1.5 million adults in the United Kingdom (UK). This puts this population at risk of reduced oxygen levels during sleep, poor sleep and increased breathing effort . All of the above put stress on the body and are proven t...

Sep 21st, 2021 - This is a prospective observational study including patients undergoing TAVI with either self- or balloon-expandable valves. After the procedure, patients will be on ECG monitoring during the hospitalization period (or at least 72 hours), and an E...

May 6th, 2021 - STUDY SUMMARY TITLE Left Cardiac Sympathetic Denervation (LCSD) for Cardiomyopathy Study DESIGN Phase II feasibility parallel randomised controlled trial (RCT) AIMS Assess the feasibility and safety of LCSD in patients with cardiomyopathy and hear...

Dec 20th, 2021 - Given today's short hospital stays after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), there may be a role for selective long-term monitoring to flag delayed conduction abnormalities, studies showed. Researchers tested two continuous ECG monitori...

Oct 4th, 2021 - In the early days of the pandemic, we were debating the merits of telemedicine to avoid bringing patients into the office. I was very much in favor of telemedicine, but some of my colleagues argued that seeing patients in person in the clinic gave...

Aug 29th, 2021 - UPDATED AUGUST 30, 2021 // Maybe short, asymptomatic bouts of atrial fibrillation (AF) that show up on long-term, continuous monitoring aren't worth hunting for just so oral anticoagulation (OAC) can be started, even in elderly people with other s...

Aug 23rd, 2021 - This transcript has been edited for clarity. I'm Dr Neil Skolnik. Today we are going to discuss the 2021 Guideline for the Prevention of Stroke in Patients With Stroke and Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) from the American Heart Association/America...

May 6th, 2021 - Obesity is well known to promote atrial fibrillation (AF), and catheter ablation can dramatically cut back on AF prevalence. But assigning patients to a structured obesity-reduction program after AF ablation may not enhance the treatment's effect ...
