Mashup Score: 0Increased AFib screening improves bradyarrhythmia detection—but is it a mixed blessing? - 1 year(s) ago
When long-term continuous monitoring detects bradyarrhythmia in an asymptomatic patient, is it still providing value?

Mashup Score: 0A Flawed Analysis Induces Severe Sadness - 1 year(s) ago
A prominent journal in cardiology has published one of the most flawed analyses I have seen in years. And the conclusions are even worse.

Mashup Score: 0AI model predicts risk of post-operative AFib - 1 year(s) ago
Researchers have built a new artificial intelligence (AI) model that uses electrocardiogram (ECG) data to identify patients who are more likely to develop atrial fibrillation (AFib) after surgery, sharing their findings in Circulation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology.[1] Post-operative atrial fibrillation (POAF) was once viewed as “benign and transient,” the group explained, but more recent…

Mashup Score: 0Abbott gains new FDA approval for one catheter, CE mark approval for a second catheter - 1 year(s) ago
Abbott has announced two key regulatory approvals, including one in the United States and another in Europe. First, the company’s FlexAbility Sensor Enabled Ablation Catheter received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for a new indication. The device is now approved as a treatment option for ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy. The FDA’s…

Mashup Score: 0Severe gum infections linked to heightened AFib risk - 1 year(s) ago
Periodontitis, a severe gum infection, may increase a patient’s risk of developing atrial fibrillation (AFib), according to findings published in JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology.[1] “Periodontitis is associated with a long-standing inflammation, and inflammation plays a key role in atrial fibrosis progression and AFib pathogenesis,” first author Shunsuke Miyauchi, an assistant professor at…

Mashup Score: 0Infection, heart failure the most common reasons for early mortality after transvenous lead removal - 1 year(s) ago
Overall, all-cause mortality after 30 days was 3% over the study’s 20-year study period. Infection (42%) was the No. 1 cause of 30-day mortality, followed by decompensated heart failure (17%), procedure-related mortality (10%), sudden cardiac arrest (7%) and respiratory failure (6%). Mortality specifically related to the TLR procedure was seen in just 0.3% of patients. In addition, the authors…

Mashup Score: 0COVID-19 infection and vaccination linked to debilitating heart condition—risk from vaccines ‘relatively slim’ - 1 year(s) ago
COVID-19 patients may face an increased risk of developing a significant heart rhythm condition, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTs), according to new findings published in Nature Cardiovascular Research.[1] COVID-19 vaccines are also associated with a higher POTS risk, but the risk was much greater after COVID-19 than after COVID-19 vaccination. “The main message here is that…

Mashup Score: 0Early catheter ablation superior to medication when treating ventricular tachycardia storm - 1 year(s) ago
Early catheter ablation (CA) outperforms medication alone when treating patients who present with ventricular tachycardia (VT) storm, according to new findings published in Circulation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology.[1] “VT storm is a distinct arrhythmic emergency characterized by three or more episodes of sustained VT within 24 hours or incessant VT,” wrote first author Kaimin Huang, BSc,…
