Mashup Score: 22Endocardial-Only VT Ablation Associated With Long-Term VT-Free Survival in More Than Half of ARVC Patients - American College of Cardiology - 5 month(s) ago
Endocardial (ENDO)-only ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation has been found to indicate long-term VT-free survival in more than half of patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) and more than 75% if VT noninducibility is achieved following ablation, according to the results of a study presented at Heart Rhythm 2024 and simultaneously published in JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology. The study, conducted at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania between 1998 and 2020,

Mashup Score: 3Exploring Sex Differences in LBBAP vs. BIVP For CRT - American College of Cardiology - 6 month(s) ago
Similar clinical outcomes were observed among men and women undergoing left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) for CRT, and men undergoing LBBAP had a lower risk of heart failure (HF)-related hospitalizations and all-cause mortality when compared to men undergoing biventricular pacing (BIVP), according to a study presented at Heart Rhythm 2024 and simultaneously published in JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology. Usha B. Tedrow, MD, MSc, et al., set out to explore sex differences in response to LBBAP vs. BIVP

Dravet syndrome, a congenital epileptic disorder is assoc w/ high risk of SUDEP. This involves the remodeling of NaV 1.6 within cardiac T-tubules that serve as a substrate for calcium-mediated arrhythmias. https://t.co/8IiLjtraBc #JACCCEP @SHWeinbergLab @nanocardiology @HundLab https://t.co/hxzGJI7m1M

Mashup Score: 1Multisize Electrode Field-of-View: Validation by High Resolution Gadolinium-Enhanced Cardiac Magnetic Resonance - 7 month(s) ago
AbstractBackgroundVoltage mapping to detect ventricular scar is important for guiding catheter ablation, but the field-of-view of unipolar, bipolar, conventional, and microelectrodes as it relates …
Source: www.jacc.orgCategories: General Medicine News, Partners & KOLsTweet-
For unipolar voltage mapping, the field-of-view of conventional & microelectrodes is similar & appears to be limited to an 8 to 10 mm sphere, respectively. VM is unlikely to provide meaningful information for more remote arrhythmia substrates. https://t.co/CuC1n93MM5 #JACCCEP https://t.co/t5KGG1HUn8

P-wave morphology (PWM) provides a useful guide to the localization of common non-PV triggers arising from both the right atrium & LA. There was minimal change in PWM observed after PV & posterior wall isolation largely at the inferoposterior LA. https://t.co/02tK6O0Nja #JACCCEP https://t.co/Z1EOdukuKk
