Postablation chest pain consistent with pericarditis was reduced with colchicine (4% versus 15%; HR, 0.26 [95% CI, 0.09–0.77];P=0.02) BACKGROUND:Inflammation may promote atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after catheter ablation. mg twice daily or placebo for 10 days.

There is STE in inferior leads now (The unfortunate thing about these leads is the conventional naming that labels them as inferior, which could not be more misleading in electrophysiological terms. Such an out-of-proportion STE is virtually never seen in pericarditis. See bibliography). Look at the STE in lead II, aVF.

There were no incidences of adverse event fistula, diaphragmatic paralysis, MI, pericarditis, thromboembolism, PV stenosis, transient ischemic attack, or death. BACKGROUND:Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a promising treatment for atrial fibrillation.

First Troponin I was <2 and peak was 8, echo showed subtle apical lateral hypokinesis, CRP was elevated, and patient was discharged with a diagnosis of regional pericarditis. In this case, there would be evolution, but the evolution would be typical of pericarditis (if the diagnosis of pericarditis was accurate!!
