Risk Stratification Using Heart Rate Turbulence and Ventricular Arrhythmia in MADIT II: Usefulness and Limitations of a 10‐Minute Holter Recording
Alexander Berkowitsch,Wojciech Zareba,Thomas Neumann,Ali Erdogan,Scott Mc Nitt,Arthur J. Moss,Heinz F. Pitschner +6 more
TL;DR: The usefulness of heart rate turbulence parameters and frequency of ventricular premature beats for risk‐stratifying postinfarction patients with depressed left ventricular function enrolled in Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Trial II (MADIT II) is evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quality-of-life in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after catheter ablation: results of long-term follow-up.
Ali Erdogan,Joerg Carlsson,Thomas Neumann,Alexander Berkowitsch,Joerg Neuzner,Christian W. Hamm,Heinz F. Pitschner +6 more
TL;DR: Patients with PAF experience a significant improvement in QOL after a successful catheter ablation, and in patients with recurrence of PAF the QOL showed improvement to a lesser extent and patients experienced ongoing symptoms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Percutaneous Pulmonary Vein Stenting for the Treatment of Severe Stenosis After Pulmonary Vein Isolation
Thomas Neumann,Johannes Sperzel,Thorsten Dill,Alexander Kluge,Ali Erdogan,Harald Greis,Jochen Hansel,Alexander Berkowitsch,Klaus Kurzidim,Malte Kuniss,Christian W. Hamm,Heinz-F. Pitschner +11 more
TL;DR: The aim of this study was the evaluation of the severity and long‐term outcome of primary angioplasty and angiopLasty with pulmonary vein stenting for PVS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Usefulness of Atrial Fibrillation Burden as a Predictor for Success of Pulmonary Vein Isolation
Alexander Berkowitsch,Harald Greiss,Dejan Vukajlovic,Malte Kuniss,Thomas Neumann,Sergej Zaltsberg,Klaus Kurzidim,Christian W. Hamm,Heinz F. Pitschner +8 more
TL;DR: This work assessed the usefulness and predictive accuracy of AF (atrial fibrillation) burden within the first 3 months after the procedure as an early predictor for curative success as well as reduction of symptoms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cryocatheter Ablation of Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Tachycardia
Klaus Kurzidim,Hans-Jürgen Schneider,Malte Kuniss,Johannes Sperzel,Harald Greiss,Alexander Berkowitsch,Heinz F. Pitschner +6 more
TL;DR: The initial experience with cryocatheter ablation of right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) tachycardia is presented.
