TL;DR: ICD therapy was an effective strategy in Brugada syndrome, treating potentially lethal arrhythmias in 17% of patients during long-term follow-up, and risk stratification by electrophysiologic study may identify asymptomatic patients at risk for arrhythmic events and could be helpful in investigating syncope not related to VAs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single 3-minute freeze for second-generation cryoballoon ablation: One-year follow-up after pulmonary vein isolation
Giuseppe Ciconte,Carlo de Asmundis,Juan Sieira,Giulio Conte,Giacomo Di Giovanni,Giacomo Mugnai,Yukio Saitoh,Giannis Baltogiannis,Ghazala Irfan,Hugo Enrique Coutino-Moreno,Burak Hünük,Vedran Velagic,Pedro Brugada,Gian-Battista Chierchia +13 more
TL;DR: A single 3-minute freeze is highly effective, determining an atrial tachyarrhythmia freedom of 80.4% at 1-year follow-up, and Routine use of an "insurance freeze" may not be needed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inferior and Lateral Electrocardiographic Repolarization Abnormalities in Brugada Syndrome
Andrea Sarkozy,Gian-Battista Chierchia,Gaetano Paparella,Tim Boussy,Carlo de Asmundis,Marcus Roos,Stefan Henkens,Leonard Kaufman,Ronald Buyl,Ramon Brugada,Josep Brugada,Pedro Brugada +11 more
TL;DR: Inferior-lateral early repolarization pattern occurs spontaneously relatively frequently in BS, and for the first time 3 patients in whom the class I AAD–provoked coved Brugada pattern was only observed in the inferior leads.
Journal ArticleDOI
One-year follow-up after single procedure Cryoballoon ablation: a comparison between the first and second generation balloon.
Giacomo Di Giovanni,Kristel Wauters,Gian-Battista Chierchia,Juan Sieira,Moises Levinstein,Giulio Conte,Carlo de Asmundis,Giannis Baltogiannis,Yukio Saitoh,Giuseppe Ciconte,Justo Julia,Giacomo Mugnai,Ghazala Irfan,Pedro Brugada +13 more
TL;DR: The second generation Cryoballoon Advance was designed with technical modifications resulting in a larger and more uniform zone of freezing on the balloon's surface aiming at procedural outcome improvement in the setting of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Second-generation cryoballoon ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation: 1-year follow-up
Gian-Battista Chierchia,Giacomo Di Giovanni,Giuseppe Ciconte,Carlo de Asmundis,Giulio Conte,Juan Sieira-Moret,Moisés Rodríguez-Mañero,Ruben Casado,Giannis Baltogiannis,Mehdi Namdar,Yukio Saitoh,Gaetano Paparella,Giacomo Mugnai,Pedro Brugada +13 more
TL;DR: The CB-A is very effective in producing PVI and affords freedom from AF at 12 months follow-up in 83% of patients affected by drug-resistant PAF following a 3-month BP.
