Rate vs Rhythm Control in Atrial Fibrillation Rate vs rhythm control as a management strategy in atrial fibrillation has been a long standing topic for debate. EAST-AFNET 4 trial had 2789 patients with early atrial fibrillation and cardiovascular conditions [8]. years of follow up per patient. N Engl J Med.

“Therefore, we have made the decision to offer only DX technology for new patients needing a single-chamber ICD, providing equivalent therapies along with additional atrial monitoring data, as recommended by current guidelines.” Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 30, Issue 10, October 2019, Pages 1994–2001.

The most common arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation , will affect approximately 12.1 Pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) are the standard of care to regulate a patient’s irregular heartbeat. The pacemaker system can be removed or replaced at any time should a person’s treatment requirements change.

Abstract Introduction Wearable cardioverter defibrillator (WCD) is utilized in patients with assumed but not yet confirmed risk for sudden cardiac death (SCD). Many of these patients also present with atrial fibrillation (AF).

I am always happy to see this ECG of Brugada syndrome sent to me by Professor Josep Brugada, in 2001, for the inaugural issue of the Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, which I started in 2001. Of course, the commonest sustained arrhythmia in general population is atrial fibrillation.

AF, atrial fibrillation; ICD, implantable cardioverter defibrillator; ILR, implantable loop recorder. ABSTRACT Introduction Little is known about age and clinical intervention after implantable loop recorder (ILR) insertion. This study investigated the association between age and clinical intervention after ILR implantation.

At cath, he immediately had incessant Torsades de Pointes requiring defibrillation 7 times and requiring placement of a transvenous pacer for overdrive pacing at a rate of 80. There is atrial fibrillation. He was given amiodarone and lidocaine load and drip and K and Mg drips. After pacing, there was no recurrence of Torsades.
