TL;DR: The current health care dilemma worldwide is how to sustain the capacity for quality services not only for those suffering from COVID-19 but also for non-CO VID-19 patients, all while protecting physicians, nurses, and other allied health care workers.
21 citations
TL;DR: This study evaluated whether compliance with the atrial fibrillation Better Care pathway for integrated care management would improve clinical outcomes in frail AF patients.
21 citations
TL;DR: The aim of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the new bidirectional rotational mechanical sheath TightRail™ (Spectranetics) for lead extraction.
18 citations
TL;DR: The aim of this meta‐analysis is to indicate whether increased QT dispersion (QTd) is associated with fatal and nonfatal outcomes in patients with CHD and/or HF.
17 citations
TL;DR: Quinidine has the potential to be an effective pharmacological therapy for SQTS patients, especially in young children who are not feasible in ICD implantation, because of the ability to prolong QT interval.
TL;DR: This study aimed to investigate serum 25[OH]D levels between patients with vasovagal syncope diagnosed with head‐up tilt table test and age‐matched healthy people.
TL;DR: A case of complex scar‐related AT with the use of AdvisorTM HD Grid which showed clear fractionated signal at isthmus area as compare to the absence of signal on ablation catheter at the same area despite adequate contact force is presented.
TL;DR: Patients with cardiac amyloidosis have increased mortality, which can be explained in part by an increased risk of arrhythmias, and the role of implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators (ICD) in this population is uncertain.
TL;DR: Left atrial endocardial activation patterns during AF are characterized using noncontact charge‐density mapping to elucidate underlying mechanisms contributing to AF maintenance.
TL;DR: This study reported the transition period experience of the zero‐fluoroscopy procedure by an experienced operator and shared the zero-fluoroscope protocol, which is used for atrial fibrillation without using fluoroscopy.
TL;DR: The efficacy, feasibility, and safety of HPSD ablation during the posterior wall isolation, the Box isolation (BOXI), is evaluated.
TL;DR: The purpose of this article was to determine the change in the volume of pacemaker implantations with the COVID‐2019 pandemic and to assess the change the number ofpacemaker implants according to etiology during the pandemic.
TL;DR: This study aims to research the clinical features of atrial thrombi in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF) and to investigate the role of EMT in the development of thrombosis.
TL;DR: The feasibility of significant weight reduction in a specialist arrhythmia service, and its impact on atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation outcomes, is assessed in a real‐world cohort in the United Kingdom.
