Background And Objective: Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) is increasingly used for treating bradycardia and heart failure. However, real-world data are limited. The Conduction-System Pacing Italian Network Group (C-SING) collected prospective data on LBBAP procedures in a nationwide context.

We explored the results of two tests of the novel HeartInsight algorithm for heart failure (HF) prediction, reconstructing trends from historical cases. Results suggest potential extension of HeartInsight to implantable cardioverter defibrillators patients without history of HF and illustrate the importance of the baseline clinical profile in enhancing algorithm specificity.

Aims: In this study, we investigated a cohort of unselected patients with various indications for an implantable cardiac monitor (ICM). Our main objectives were to determine the incidence of arrhythmic diagnoses, both anticipated and incidental in relation to the ICM indication, and to assess their clinical relevance.

Methods: We examined remote monitoring transmissions from patients with an ICM at four Italian sites to identify occurrences of cardiac arrhythmias.

Aims: A dual-chamber pacemaker with closed-loop stimulation (CLS) mode is effective in reducing syncopal recurrences in patients with asystolic vasovagal syncope (VVS). In this study, we explored the haemodynamic and temporal relationship of CLS during a tilt-induced vasovagal reflex.

Methods And Results: Twenty patients underwent a tilt test under video recording 3.

Prcis: This study showed that the XEN patency should be verified by OCT imaging in cases of encapsulated blebs. Although fibrosis plays the principal role, humor aqueous flow reduction could affect the "spacer" effect that inhibits the fibroblast attachments.

Purpose: To evaluate the application of the anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) imaging in studying the relationship between a low flow rate through the XEN63 and the development of a cystic bleb.
