Mashup Score: 0To the Editor— Estimated prevalences of serious adverse events associated with the AtriClip device for left atrial appendage occlusion - 1 year(s) ago
Contractor et al1 recently reported the adverse events associated with the AtriClip device (AtriCure, West Chester, OH), which is used for left atrial appendage exclusion during cardiac surgery, either via median sternotomy or via thoracoscopic access. They provided interesting data on various adverse events related to the use of this device between December 1, 2015, and November 30, 2021,…

Bhattacharyya et al (J Clin Invest 2023;133:e153635, PMID 36454649) globally profiled the mouse cardiac conduction system (CCS) cis-regulatory landscape by genetically tagged CCS component-specific nuclei for comprehensive assay for transposase-accessible chromatin-sequencing (ATAC-Seq) analysis. A global CCS-enriched cis-regulatory element (CRE) database, referred to as CCS-ATAC, was established…

Mashup Score: 2EP News: Case Reports - 1 year(s) ago
Leadless pacemaker technologies have matured to the point that patients have reached a time in which device replacements are required for various reasons. In the setting of a retained device at the time of device replacement, there is the potential for device-to-device interactions. Frazer et al (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.hrcr.2023.03.001) share the case of a 62-year-old man with end-stage renal…

The last year has shown that the Heart Rhythm Society (HRS) cannot be too prepared for a crisis and that members need a powerful advocate in their corner as they navigate their busy, demanding careers. HRS has embraced being a voice for the field of electrophysiology (EP) as 1 of 3 priorities of the new 2023–2026 strategic plan that the Board of Trustees has recently drafted and endorsed. As you…

Mashup Score: 0Utility of a multi-purpose catheter for transvenous extraction of old broken leads: A novel technique for fragile leads - 1 year(s) ago
Transvenous lead extraction has been possible since the 1980s. However, complications during lead extraction, such as the distal end fragment of the lead remaining in the myocardium or venous system and injury to the veins or heart, have been reported.

Mashup Score: 1Impact of reductions in Medicare reimbursement for cardiac ablation in the United States: Heart Rhythm Society’s follow-up survey - 1 year(s) ago
In January 2022, the US Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) enacted reductions of 25%–30% in physician reimbursement for most catheter ablation services.1 Concern arose regarding the future of ablation services in the United States. As the leading organization dedicated to arrhythmia care, the Heart Rhythm Society (HRS), through its Health Policy and Regulatory Affairs Committee,…

Mashup Score: 0Knowledge and preferences of postexplant management and opinions on the reuse of cardiac implantable electronic devices - 1 year(s) ago
The high cost of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) is the most significant barrier to the lack of treatment in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The literature suggests that reusing CIEDs is safe and could therefore be a cost-effective alternative for patients who do not have access to new devices.1

Mashup Score: 0
The rapid identification of cardiac implanted electronic devices (CIEDs) is important in several clinical settings. Computer vision applications based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been applied widely in cardiac imaging, and these methods have also been used to identify CIEDs on chest radiographs (CXRs).1–4 However, previously published studies are limited by the small scale of…

Mashup Score: 0Cardioneuroablation for carotid sinus syndrome: a case series - 1 year(s) ago
Cardioinhibitory carotid sinus syndrome (CSS) is a neurally mediated (reflex) syncope, secondary to excessive vagal response to carotid sinus pressure. A growing body of studies have shown that catheter ablation of ganglionated plexi (GPs) or cardioneuroablation (CNA) is effective in treating patients with vasovagal syncope.1 To date, no studies systematically evaluated CNA in patients with CSS.
