Despite substantial progress in medical and device-based heart failure (HF) therapy, ventricular arrhythmias (VA) and sudden cardiac death (SCD) remain a major challenge. Here we review contemporary m...
Besides limited efficacy of antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs), their potentially life-threatening side effects are increasingly acknowledged. On the other hand, with tremendous advances in catheter technolo...
Various agents may be utilized to manage supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) in neonates and infants. Recently, sotalol has piqued interest given its reported success in managing neonates and infants w...
This is a single center retrospective study evaluating effective sotalol dosing from January 2011 and June 2021 (inclusive). Neonates who received intravenous (IV) or oral (PO) sotalol for SVT were el...
Thirty-one eligible patients were included in this study. The median (range) age and weight were 16.5 (1-28) days and 3.2 (1.8-4.9) kg, respectively. The median initial dose was 7.3 (1.9-10.8) mg/kg o...
This study demonstrates that a sotalol strategy significantly higher than the manufacture dose recommendations are required for rhythm control in neonates with SVT. There were few adverse events repor...
While in-utero treatment of sustained fetal supraventricular arrhythmia (SVA) is standard practice in the previable and preterm fetus, data are limited on best practice for late preterm (34 + 0 to 36 ...
This was a retrospective case series of fetuses presenting at ≥ 35 weeks of gestation with sustained SVA and treated transplacentally at six institutions between 2012 and 2022. Data were collected on ...
Overall, 37 fetuses presented at a median gestational age of 35.7 (range, 35.0-39.7) weeks with short VA tachycardia (n = 20), long VA tachycardia (n = 7) or atrial flutter (n = 10). Four (11%) fetuse...
In-utero treatment of the near term and term (≥ 35-week) SVA fetus is highly successful even in the presence of hydrops, with the majority of cases delivered vaginally closer to term, thereby avoiding...
Arrhythmia is one of the commonly heart diseases with observed abnormal heart-beat rhythm that caused by the obstacles of cardiac activity and conduction. The arrhythmic pathogenesis is complex and ca...
This international multidisciplinary expert consensus statement is intended to provide comprehensive guidance that can be referenced at the point of care to cardiac electrophysiologists, cardiologists...
Acute onset supraventricular arrhythmias can contribute to haemodynamic compromise in septic shock. Both amiodarone and propafenone are available interventions, but their clinical effects have not yet...
In this two-centre, prospective controlled parallel group double blind trial we recruited 209 septic shock patients with new-onset arrhythmia and a left ventricular ejection fraction above 35%. The pa...
Out of 209 randomized patients, 200 (96%) received the study drug. After 24 h, 77 (72.8%) and 71 (67.3%) were in sinus rhythm (p = 0.4), restored after a median of 3.7 h (95% CI 2.3-6.8) and 7.3 h (95...
Propafenone does not provide better rhythm control at 24 h yet offers faster cardioversion with fewer arrhythmia recurrences than with amiodarone, especially in patients with a non-dilated left atrium...
Persistent shock-resistant atrial fibrillation (AF) is a challenging entity, with modest results from catheter ablation according to conventional survival analysis....
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of catheter ablation on atrial tachyarrhythmia (ATA) burden in persistent AF patients undergoing first-time ablation with the use of an implantable ca...
Patients with drug-resistant ongoing persistent AF and at least 1 previous failed cardioversion were implanted with an ICM 2 months before the procedure. All patients underwent pulmonary vein isolatio...
Sixty patients were recruited (mean age 66 ± 9 years, 70% male). Mean left atrial diameter was 48 ± 6 mm and median CHA...
Patient-tailored catheter ablation results in a significant reduction in ATA burden (off antiarrhythmic medication) in shock-resistant persistent AF patients using ICMs implanted 2-months pre-procedur...
Ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2) hyperactivity is observed in structural heart diseases that are a result of ischemia or heart failure. It causes abnormal calcium handling and calcium leaks that cause meta...
Use of d,l-sotalol for rhythm control in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) has raised safety concerns. Previous randomized studies are few and not designed for mortality outcome....
The purpose of this study was to compare the incidences of mortality and ventricular arrhythmias in AF patients treated with d,l-sotalol for rhythm control vs matched control patients treated with car...
This population-based cohort study included AF patients from the Swedish National Patient Registry (2006-2017) who underwent rhythm control after a second cardioversion. Incidence rates (IRs) and adju...
Among patient treated with d,l-sotalol (n = 4987) and beta-blocker (n = 27,078) (mean follow-up 458 days), all-cause mortality was lower in patients treated with d,l-sotalol: IR 1.21; 95% confidence i...
There was no excess mortality with d,l-sotalol compared with cardioselective beta-blockers in patients undergoing rhythm control treatment for AF after a second cardioversion. Our results indicate tha...
