Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to evaluate the safety and performance of two new types of left ventricular leads, NAVIGO 4LV 2D and NAVIGO 4LV ARC, in patients undergoing cardiac resynchronization therapy.
  • Results showed a high implantation success rate of 97.2% with minimal lead-related complications: 100% for NAVIGO 4LV 2D and 96.1% for ARC.
  • Both leads demonstrated excellent performance, with over 98% of patients achieving successful lead performance and a global complication-free rate of 97.1% after 12 months.

Background: In a preliminary study in patients hospitalized for catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF), the atrial thrombus exclusion (ATE) score (stroke, hypertension, heart failure, and D-dimers >270 ng/mL) was developed to rule out the diagnosis of intra-atrial thrombus, with a negative predictive value (NPV) of 100%, and to avoid performing transesophageal echocardiography (TEE).

Objectives: The present study was designed to prospectively confirm the NPV of the ATE score in an independent population.

Methods: Consecutive patients hospitalized for catheter ablation of AF or left atrial tachycardia (LAT) were prospectively enrolled in a multicenter study.

Background: Increasing numbers of patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) are undergoing radiotherapy (RT) for cancer. The aim of the study was to prospectively evaluate the incidence, characteristics, and associated factors of CIED dysfunctions related to RT.

Methods: Between April 2013 and March 2020, all patients with a CIED who underwent ≥1 RT session were enrolled.

Aims: FRench Attitude reGistry in case of ICD LEad replacement (FRAGILE) registry was set-up to describe the attitude in different French institutions in case of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) lead replacement, extraction, or abandonment and to compare outcomes in both groups.

Methods And Results: Prospective observational study comparing two attitudes in case of ICD lead replacement, extraction, or abandonment. Primary endpoint describes the attitude in different French centres, collect parameters that may influence the decision.

Proton pump inhibitors are widely prescribed but their long-term use can expose patients to adverse effects. Some of these are not very well known, including hypomagnesemia. Hypomagnesemia can be manifested by cardiac complications such as supraventricular arrhythmia or QT prolongation, increasing the risk of torsade de pointe.
