The Rhythmia ultrahigh-density mapping system with a specific algorithm seems to be helpful in identifying the target area to successfully treat multiple morphologies by catheter ablation in the right ventricular outflow tract RVOT. Interestingly, the acquisition process seemed to be extremely faster than a standard manual point-by-point premature ventricular contraction (PVC) mapping.

Background: Nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) is a common finding during cardiac evaluation and has been linked to increased mortality. While some studies report a sex difference, most data stem from research cohorts.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the prognostic significance of NSVT in a real-life outpatient clinic, focusing on sex differences in mortality.

Leadless pacemakers (LPs) are emerging options for bradyarrhythmias. However, extraction can be risky if the device is in an unfavorable position. We present a challenging case of a Nanostim LP (NLP) (Abbott Medical Inc.

Objective: To investigate the correlation between premature ventricular contraction (PVC) frequency and heart rate (HR) in Chinese adults, with an emphasis on sex-specific differences in clinical characteristics.
Patients And Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 24-hour Holter monitoring data from 478 inpatients at the First People's Hospital of Yibin between January 2021 and December 2022. The inclusion criteria were age ≥18 years, ≥20 hours of Holter recording, frequent PVCs (≥ 500 PVCs), and complete clinical profiles.

Background: Although smartphone-based devices have been developed to record 1-lead ECG, existing solutions for automatic atrial fibrillation (AF) detection often has poor positive predictive value.
Objective: This study aimed to validate a cloud-based deep learning platform for automatic AF detection in a large cohort of patients using 1-lead ECG records.
Methods: We analyzed 8,528 patients with 30-second ECG records from a single-lead handheld ECG device.

Fukuyama congenital muscular dystrophy (FCMD) is the second most common childhood-onset muscular dystrophy in Japan. However, only a few comprehensive studies have investigated cardiac complications associated with FCMD, with none on arrhythmias. The present study evaluated 78 Holter electrocardiograms from 15 patients with FCMD.
