Journal ArticleDOI
Dronedarone for prevention of atrial fibrillation : A dose-ranging study
Paul Touboul,Josep Brugada,Alessandro Capucci,Harry J.G.M. Crijns,Nils Edvardsson,Stefan H. Hohnloser +5 more
TL;DR: Dronedarone, at a 800 mg daily dose, appears to be effective and safe for the prevention of AF relapses after cardioversion, and the absence of thyroid side effects and of proarrhythmia are important features of the drug.
Journal ArticleDOI
A randomized double-blind study of epicardial left atrial cryoablation for permanent atrial fibrillation in patients undergoing mitral valve surgery: the SWEDish Multicentre Atrial Fibrillation study (SWEDMAF)
Carina Blomström-Lundqvist,Birgitta Johansson,Eva Berglin,Leif Nilsson,Steen M. Jensen,Stefan Thelin,Anders Holmgren,Nils Edvardsson,Göran Källner,Per Blomström +9 more
TL;DR: This first prospective randomized study showed that combining MVS with epicardial left atrial LA cryoablation is significantly better in eliminating pre-operative permanent AF than MVS alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prospective study of left ventricular function after radiofrequency ablation of atrioventricular junction in patients with atrial fibrillation.
TL;DR: In patients with left ventricular dysfunction long term improvement of systolic and diastolicleft ventricular function was seen after ablation of the atrioventricular junction for rate control of atrial fibrillation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrocardiographic and clinical predictors of torsades de pointes induced by almokalant infusion in patients with chronic atrial fibrillation or flutter: A prospective study
Birgitta Houltz,Börje Darpö,Nils Edvardsson,Per Blomström,Johannes Brachmann,Harry J.G.M. Crijns,Steen M. Jensen,Elisabeth Svernhage,Hans Vallin,Karl Swedberg +9 more
TL;DR: Patients developing TdP exhibited early during almokalant infusion a pronounced QT prolongation, increased QT dispersion, and marked morphological T wave changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sotalol-induced delayed ventricular repolarization in man
TL;DR: The study confirms the existence of a class III mode of action at the cellular level following intravenous sotalol injections of40–100 mg in man and shows an increase in the ventricular repolarization time.
