Journal ArticleDOI
Randomized study comparing duty-cycled bipolar and unipolar radiofrequency with point-by-point ablation in pulmonary vein isolation.
Alex Bittner,Gerold Mönnig,Stephan Zellerhoff,Christian Pott,Julia Köbe,Dirk G. Dechering,Peter Milberg,Kristina Wasmer,Lars Eckardt +8 more
TL;DR: PVAC represents a safe alternative for PV isolation and reduces both procedure and fluoroscopy time and the short- and middle-term efficacy is comparable to a conventional point-by-point antral ablation technique.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prophylactic proton pump inhibition after atrial fibrillation ablation: is there any evidence?
TL;DR: The development of an atrio-oesophageal fistula following catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation is a well known, but rare complication with a high mortality, partially due to the late fistula formation weeks after the initial procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new mechanism preventing proarrhythmia in chronic heart failure: rapid phase-III repolarization explains the low proarrhythmic potential of amiodarone in contrast to sotalol in a model of pacing-induced heart failure.
Gerrit Frommeyer,Peter Milberg,Patricia Witte,Jörg Stypmann,Matthias Koopmann,Martin Lücke,Nani Osada,Günter Breithardt,Michael Fehr,Lars Eckardt +9 more
TL;DR: The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanism underlying the low proarrhythmic potential of amiodarone in a model of pacing‐induced heart failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Triple threat: the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger in the pathophysiology of cardiac arrhythmia, ischemia and heart failure.
TL;DR: Transgenic mice as well as pharmacological interventions have been used to support the idea of using NCX inhibition as a future pharmacological strategy to treat cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiac Sympathetic Dysfunction in Genotyped Patients with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy and Risk of Recurrent Ventricular Tachyarrhythmias
Matthias Paul,Thomas Wichter,Peter Kies,Joachim Gerss,Christian Wollmann,Kambiz Rahbar,Lars Eckardt,Günter Breithardt,Otmar Schober,Eric Schulze-Bahr,Michael Schäfers +10 more
TL;DR: In patients with ARVC, an impairment of adrenergic innervation independent of the underlying genotype is associated with a higher incidence for future recurrences of ventricular tachyarrhythmias.
