We present a case of a neonate who presented with worsening heart failure due to congenital complete atrioventricular (AV) block, secondary to maternal anti Ro/SSA and anti-LA/SSB antibodies. The patient was implanted a temporary pacemaker in view of hemodynamic deterioration and subsequently was weaned off ionotropic support and referred for permanent epicardial pacemaker implantation. We report temporary pacemaker implantation in a neonate with hemodynamic instability as a stabilizing measure and discuss technical challenges for the same.

Artificial Intelligence-Enhanced Electrocardiography for Prediction of Incident Hypertension.
JAMA Cardiol
January 2025
National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College London, United Kingdom.
Importance: Hypertension underpins significant global morbidity and mortality. Early lifestyle intervention and treatment are effective in reducing adverse outcomes. Artificial intelligence-enhanced electrocardiography (AI-ECG) has been shown to identify a broad spectrum of subclinical disease and may be useful for predicting incident hypertension.

Background: Hypertension is common in patients with heart failure with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction (HFmrEF/HFpEF), and current guidelines recommend treating systolic blood pressure (SBP) to a target <130 mm Hg. However, data supporting treatment to this target are limited. Additionally, pulse pressure (PP), a marker of aortic stiffness, has been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events, but its prognostic impact in HFpEF has not been extensively studied.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAcute myocardial infarction (MI) is a leading cause of death worldwide. Although with current treatment, acute mortality from MI is low, the damage and remodeling associated with MI are responsible for subsequent heart failure. Reducing cell death associated with acute MI would decrease the mortality associated with heart failure.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFIntroduction: Moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in the setting of acute heart failure (AHF) has been found to be associated with worse clinical outcomes. Recently, the TRI-SCORE was developed to predict clinical outcomes after isolated tricuspid surgery.
Objectives: To determine whether this score could aid in risk stratification of AHF patients with moderate-severe TR.
Introduction: The relationship between the phenotype and treatment of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and the increased prevalence of cardiovascular comorbidities is not well studied.
Objective: To assess the prevalence of cardiovascular comorbidities in relation to the clinical phenotype and treatment of PsA.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional, real-life study.
