Cardiac resynchronization therapy-defibrillator improves long-term survival compared with cardiac resynchronization therapy-pacemaker in patients with... 26 Aug 2013 | 07:54 pm
Aims In candidates for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), the choice between pacemaker (CRT-P) and defibrillator (CRT-D) implantation is still debated. We compared the long-term prognosis of pa...

Incidence and predictors of heart failure hospitalization and death in permanent pacemaker patients: a single-centre experience over medium-term follo... 26 Aug 2013 | 07:54 pm
Aim The aim of this study was to assess the incidence and clinical predictors of the development of new-onset heart failure (HF) over medium-term follow-up, in patients treated with permanent pacing ...
Public access defibrillation improved the outcome after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in school-age children: a nationwide, population-based, Utstein... 26 Aug 2013 | 07:54 pm
Aims The purpose of this study was to determine whether implementation of public access defibrillation (PAD) improves the outcome after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in school-age children at...
Non-invasive identification of stable rotors and focal sources for human atrial fibrillation: mechanistic classification of atrial fibrillation from t... 26 Aug 2013 | 07:54 pm
Aims To develop electrocardiogram (ECG) tools to quantify the number of sources for atrial fibrillation (AF), i.e. spatially stable rotors and focal impulses, and whether they lie in right or left at...
Pacemaker lead-induced severe tricuspid valve stenosis: complete percutaneous extraction under extracorporeal life support 26 Aug 2013 | 07:54 pm
A 55-year-old man developed heart failure due to severe lead-induced tricuspid valve stenosis, 16 years after implantation of a pacemaker. After undergoing percutaneous extraction of three leads under...
Remote magnetic with open-irrigated catheter vs. manual navigation for ablation of atrial fibrillation: a systematic review and meta-analysis 26 Aug 2013 | 07:54 pm
The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of remote magnetic navigation (RMN) with open-irrigated catheter vs. manual catheter navigation (MCN) in performing atrial fibrillation (...

Classification of electrophysiological types of atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia: a reappraisal 26 Aug 2013 | 07:54 pm
Sequence of retrograde atrial activation is not a reliable criterion for the classification of atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia (AVNRT) into typical and atypical types. The conventional c...
