Sudden cardiac death (SCD) remains a pressing health issue, affecting hundreds of thousands each year globally. The heterogeneity among SCD victims, ranging from individuals with severe heart failure to seemingly healthy individuals, poses a significant challenge for effective risk assessment. Conventional risk stratification, which primarily relies on left ventricular ejection fraction, has resulted in only modest efficacy of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) for SCD prevention.

Abstract: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a mechanical support treatment modality utilized in patients with refractory cardiac and/or pulmonary failure. Bleeding and thrombotic complications associated with ECMO are inherent concerns that require careful management. Anticoagulation optimization may help mitigate these risks by providing more adequate therapeutic anticoagulation and lessen the bleed risk.

In contrast to the intense interest in physiologic ventricular pacing over the last decade, the location of atrial pacing leads has received surprisingly little attention. The right atrial appendage, initially used because of the ability to obtain stable fixation of tined leads, remains the default option for almost all implants. Various locations in the right atrium, dual site right atrial, and biatrial pacing of the right and left atria have all been investigated, without showing a consistent
