Background: An atrioventricular defibrillator system with a floating atrial dipole (VDD ICD) can provide atrial sensing by a single lead. Our aim was to compare the arrhythmia detection efficacy of VDD ICDs with conventional single- (VVI) and dual-chamber (DDD) defibrillators.

Methods: Data from consecutive patients undergoing ICD implantation were retrospectively analyzed.

Atrial Fibrillation after RSV Vaccination Among Older Adults.

Clin Infect Dis

December 2024

Division of Infectious Diseases and Global Public Health, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, California, USA.

RSV vaccine clinical trials reported higher frequencies of atrial fibrillation in intervention groups compared to control. In this large, population-based, propensity-matched study, we found RSV vaccine was not associated with increased risk of new-onset or recurrent atrial fibrillation within 1-42 days compared to influenza or Tdap vaccines.

Aims: Cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) ablation is the current ablation treatment for typical atrial flutter (AFL). However, post-ablation atrial tachyarrhythmias, mostly in the form of atrial fibrillation (AF), are frequently observed after CTI ablation. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of concomitant or isolated pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in patients with typical AFL scheduled for ablation.

Impact of malnutrition on the clinical evolution in a cohort of older patients undergoing emergency surgery for abdominal pathology.

Rev Esp Geriatr Gerontol

December 2024

Department of Geriatrics, La Paz University Hospital, Madrid, Spain; Hospital La Paz Institute for Health Research (IdiPAZ), La Paz University Hospital - Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Madrid, Spain; Faculty of Medicine, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Madrid, Spain.

Purpose: Analyse the influence of the nutritional status of older patients undergoing emergency abdominal surgery on postoperative complications, mortality and mean length of hospital stay.

Methods: We performed a longitudinal observational study including patients older than 80 years who underwent emergency surgery by the general surgery service for abdominal pathology, who were followed by the geriatrics service between September 2018 and May 2021. Malnutrition was diagnosed using Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria, classifying patients as malnourished and normonourished.
