TL;DR: Catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation in patients with heart failure was associated with a significantly lower rate of a composite end point of death from any cause or hospitalization for worsening heart failure than was medical therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In small, nonrandomized studies, an entirely subcutaneous ICD consistently detected and converted ventricular fibrillation induced during electrophysiological testing and successfully detected and treated all 12 episodes of spontaneous, sustained ventricular tachyarrhythmia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Samuel Levy,G. Breithardt,Ronald W.F. Campbell,A.J. Camm,Jean Claude Daubert,M. Allessie,E. Aliot,Alessandro Capucci,F.G. Cosio,H. Crijns,Luc Jordaens,R. N. W. Hauer,F. Lombardi,B. Lüderitz +13 more
TL;DR: The state of knowledge on the clinical presentation, the causes, the mechanisms and therapeutic approaches currently available and to propose recommendations for management of atrial fibrillation are outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pulmonary vein isolation using an occluding cryoballoon for circumferential ablation: feasibility, complications, and short-term outcome
Yves Van Belle,Petter Janse,Maximo Rivero-Ayerza,Andrew S. Thornton,Emile Jessurun,Dominic A.M.J. Theuns,Luc Jordaens +6 more
TL;DR: Balloon cryoablation of the pulmonary veins with additional segmental isolation if necessary, is a good approach for patients presenting with paroxysmal AF, showing a significant reduction in AF burden after a single procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
