Journal ArticleDOI

Incidental and ablation-induced findings during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in patients after ablation of atrial fibrillation: A retrospective study of 425 patients

TL;DR: Among the findings, thermal esophageal lesions and gastroparesis can be attributed to AF catheter ablation and upper GI pathologies are observed frequently in asymptomatic patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA)/Heart Rhythm Society (HRS)/Asia Pacific Heart Rhythm Society (APHRS)/Latin American Heart Rhythm Society (LAHRS) expert consensus on risk assessment in cardiac arrhythmias: use the right tool for the right outcome, in the right population

Jens Cosedis Nielsen, +52 more
TL;DR: This expert consensus statement task force was set down to raise awareness of using the right risk assessment tool for a given outcome in a given population, and to provide physicians with practical proposals that may lead to rational and evidence-based risk assessment and improvement of patient care in this regard.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oesophageal Probe Evaluation in Radiofrequency Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation (OPERA): results from a prospective randomized trial.

TL;DR: This first randomized study demonstrates that intraoesophageal temperature monitoring using the SensiTherm™ probe does not affect the probability of developing EDEL and the peak temperature measured by the thermoprobe seems not to correlate with the incidence of EDEL.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-fluoroscopic catheter visualization using MediGuide™ technology: experience from the first 600 procedures.

TL;DR: The first measurable clinical impact of the MG technology on a daily clinical routine is the reduction of fluoroscopy time and radiation exposure for various EP indications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cardiac Mapping Systems: Rhythmia, Topera, EnSite Precision, and CARTO.

TL;DR: New developments of Rhythmia, Topera, EnSite Precision, and CARTO systems are introduced and a look ahead to the future is provided.
