TL;DR: For patients with standard indications for ICD therapy, no indication for cardiac pacing, and an LVEF of 40% or less, dual-chamber pacing offers no clinical advantage over ventricular backup pacing and may be detrimental by increasing the combined end point of death or hospitalization for heart failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association of Atrial Tissue Fibrosis Identified by Delayed Enhancement MRI and Atrial Fibrillation Catheter Ablation The DECAAF Study
Nassir F. Marrouche,David J. Wilber,Gerhard Hindricks,Pierre Jaïs,Nazem Akoum,Francis E. Marchlinski,Eugene G. Kholmovski,Nathan S. Burgon,Nan Hu,Lluís Mont,Thomas Deneke,Mattias Duytschaever,Thomas Neumann,Moussa Mansour,Christian Mahnkopf,Bengt Herweg,Emile G. Daoud,Erik Wissner,Paul M. Bansmann,Johannes Brachmann +19 more
TL;DR: Among patients with AF undergoing catheter ablation, atrial tissue fibrosis estimated by delayed enhancement MRI was independently associated with likelihood of recurrent arrhythmia and the clinical implications of this association warrant further investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Permanent His-bundle pacing as an alternative to biventricular pacing for cardiac resynchronization therapy: A multicenter experience
Parikshit S. Sharma,Gopi Dandamudi,Bengt Herweg,David Wilson,Rajeev Singh,Angela Naperkowski,Jayanthi N. Koneru,Kenneth A. Ellenbogen,Pugazhendhi Vijayaraman +8 more
TL;DR: Permanent His-bundle pacing may be considered as a rescue strategy for failed BVP and may be a reasonable primary alternative to BVP for CRT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased incidence of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias in implantable defibrillator patients after the World Trade Center attack.

TL;DR: The delay in onset and the non-clustered pattern of these events differ sharply from effects following other disasters, suggesting that subacute stress may have served to promote this arrhythmogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy: Results From the International LBBAP Collaborative Study Group.
Pugazhendhi Vijayaraman,ShunmugaSundaram Ponnusamy,Óscar Cano,Parikshit S. Sharma,Angela Naperkowski,Faiz A. Subsposh,Paweł Moskal,Agnieszka Bednarek,Alexander R. Dal Forno,Wilson Young,Sudip Nanda,Dominik Beer,Bengt Herweg,Marek Jastrzębski +13 more
TL;DR: LBBAP provides remarkably low and stable pacing thresholds and was associated with improved clinical and echocardiographic outcomes and provides an alternative option for CRT.
