Intravascular Sympathetic Stimulation to Facilitate Catheter Ablation of Premature Ventricular Complexes.

JAMA Cardiol

Section for Cardiac Electrophysiology, Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, Department of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia.

Importance: Infrequent intraprocedural premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) limit the efficacy of catheter ablation. Intravascular stimulation of sympathetic nerves via vertebral veins (VVs) has been used to activate cardiac sympathetic tone and may promote PVCs.

Objective: To characterize the ability of direct electrical sympathetic stimulation via VVs to induce PVCs at the time of catheter ablation.

The 2020 American Heart Association Guidelines advise not to perform mitral valve replacement (MVR) during septal myectomy (SM) to alleviate outflow obstruction. This study aims to review outcomes after concomitant mitral valve (MV) intervention versus SM alone. We conducted a comprehensive literature search across Embase, PubMed, and Scopus.

We present a case of an 82-year-old woman who developed sustained heart failure with left ventricular dyssynchrony after the modified Bentall procedure. Persistent circulatory instability and complete atrioventricular block suggested coronary artery stenosis. Multidetector computed tomography revealed stenosis of the grafted portion of the coronary artery.

Background: A chronic imbalance of the autonomic nervous system(ANS) may contribute to long term complications in different congenital heart diseases. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the ANS plays a role in the long-term outcome of patients with Transposition of great arteries(TGA) after arterial switch operation(ASO) as its contribution is as yet not clear.

Methods: The ANS activity was evaluated non-invasively in 26 TGA patients and 52 age-appropriate healthy subjects combining impedance cardiography and electrocardiography.
