Comparison of electrophysiological left bundle branch pacing characteristics in different bilateral electrode pacing vector configurations

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

The present study aimed to compare the electrophysiological characteristics of LBBP in different bilateral electrode pacing vector configurations.MethodsA total of 57 patients who met the criteria for left bundle branch (LBB) capture and underwent three bilateral electrode pacing vector configuration test were enrolled.

New Studies: AI Captures Electrocardiogram Patterns That Could Signal a Future Sudden Cardiac Arrest

DAIC

In a study published in Communications Medicine , David Ouyang, MD, assistant professor of Cardiology and Medicine at Cedars-Sinai, along with Chugh and fellow investigators trained a deep learning algorithm to study patterns in electrocardiograms, also known as ECGs, which are recordings of the heart’s electrical activity.

Operative therapy for cardiac arrhythmias: Setting the stage for catheter ablation

HeartRhythm

Notwithstanding many insightful observations, the electrocardiogram (ECG) arguably ignited the big bang in our understanding of cardiac arrhythmias. The development of electrophysiology (EP) studies through intravascular catheters provided the leap to verifying mechanisms, setting the stage for interventions.

Viz.ai Receives Edison Award for HCM Module

DAIC

Viz HCM uses artificial intelligence to analyze all 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) from across a health system to identify suspected HCM cases, notify cardiology care teams and increase the likelihood that patients get the right follow-up and diagnosis. JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology.

Electrophysiological characteristics of lead-position-dependent electrogram uninterrupted transition during left bundle branch pacing

HeartRhythm

The interrupted technique of left bundle branch pacing (LBBP) limits the continuous monitoring of paced electrocardiogram (ECG) and intracardiac electrogram (EGM) transitions, which may result in overlooked or misinterpreted subtle transitions.

Case report: Widely split P' waves in a patient with focal atrial tachycardia

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

However, widely split P' waves in focal atrial tachycardia (AT) on a surface electrocardiogram (ECG) have rarely been reported. The electrophysiological mechanism is relatively difficult to clarify, requiring a electrophysiological study. Background Widely split P waves in sinus rhythm have been reported previously.
