Four heartrhythm organizations from around the globe developed the statement. It is also published in HeartRhythm , the official journal of the HRS, Journal of Arrhythmia , the official journal of the APHRS, and Journal of Interventional Cardiac Electrophysiology , the official journal of the LAHRS.

High Blood Pressure Rising Because high blood pressure, also known as hypertension, contributes to nearly all types of heart disease and stroke, researchers made separate predictions for this condition. According to their projections, from 2020 to 2050, high blood pressure is expected to rise from 51.2% to 61% of the U.S. population.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common heartrhythm disorder in clinical practice. The current pandemic of a new coronavirus infection, which began in March 2020, was marked by an increase in cardiovascular diseases, including an increase in the number of patients with AF.
5 Catheter ablation is a safe and effective procedure when drugs don't work to help restore the heart's incorrect electrical signals, which cause an abnormal heartrhythm. Epub 2020 Jan 19. 2020 Jan 28;1747493020905964. 2020 June;127(1):4-20. Int J Stroke. 2021 Feb;16(2):217-221. Erratum in: Int J Stroke.
The guidelines for atrial fibrillation ( AF ) from the American Heart Association ( AHA ) in 2019 and the European Society of Cardiologists ( ESC ) in 2020 recommend continued monitoring and evaluation for patients with atrial high-rate episodes (AHRE), with the ESC noting a preference for remote monitoring.5,6 Eur Heart J.

About Atrial Fibrillation and Pulsed Field Ablation AF is one of the most common and undertreated heartrhythm disorders, affecting more than 60 million people worldwide3. 4-7 Current ablation technologies rely on thermal effects to target cardiac tissue and risk damage to additional collateral structures in the heart.
Complete left bundle branch block (CLBBB)-like QRS morphology of right ventricular pacing at pacemaker implantation satisfying the American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology Foundation/HeartRhythm Society criteria of CLBBB was associated with development of pacing induced cardiomyopathy.
