Objective Atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation services were significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. We also sought to understand factors influencing QoL, particularly the impact of COVID-19, on patients awaiting AF ablation, via a bespoke questionnaire. Although 65 patients had AF symptoms during the pandemic, 43.1%

Objective The objective is to evaluate the 5-year follow-up results of percutaneous intramyocardial septal radiofrequency ablation (PIMSRA) for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), including clinical status, electrocardiographic and echocardiographic characteristics. mm Hg, p<0.001; post exercise: from 130.5

In patients who develop atrial fibrillation (AF), does the amount of previous lifetime hours of sport/exercise impact the form of AF, cardiovascular outcomes, and/or the need for cardioversion and ablation?

The primary end point was syncope recurrence, and the secondary end point was the reduction of the ventricular arrhythmia score during exercise testing. Twenty‐six PVT/ventricular fibrillation–triggering PVCs were identified for ablation. Ablation of trigger beat significantly reduced the syncope frequency (mean±SD, 4.3±1.6

Catheter Ablation: This minimally invasive procedure is now the gold standard for many AFib patients. Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) : PFA uses controlled electrical fields to target abnormal heart tissue with a reduced risk of damaging surrounding structures like the esophagus or nerves. Other options are typically recommended first.

Left ventricular summit VT is a type of benign idiopathic adenosine-sensitive VT that is caused by triggered activity and can be precipitated by excess catecholamines, such as during exercise. Unlike other outflow tract VTs, LV summit VT can be challenging to ablate because of its intramural or epicardial origin.

Ablation will be performed with the use of a substrate-based approach in which the myocardial scar is mapped and ablated while the heart remains predominantly in sinus rhythm. Cardiovascular mortality, driven by sudden cardiac death, is the main reason for dying while waiting for heart transplantation (HTx).
