AI Article Synopsis

  • * Managing AF effectively involves a multidisciplinary team (MDT), working closely with cardiologists and other healthcare providers to create a tailored care plan that addresses the complex nature of the disorder.
  • * Ongoing evaluation and adjustment of treatment are essential, as new risk factors, symptoms, and advancements in therapies can change the approach to AF management over time.

Article Abstract

Atrial fibrillation (AF) represents the most common sustained arrhythmia necessitating dual focus: acute complication management and sustained longitudinal oversight to modulate disease progression and ensure comprehensive patient care over time. AF is a multifaceted disorder; due to such a great number of potential exacerbating conditions, a multidisciplinary team (MDT) should manage AF patients by cooperating with a cardiologist. Effective management of AF patients necessitates the implementation of a well-coordinated and tailored care pathway aimed at delivering optimized treatment through collaboration among various healthcare professionals. Management of AF should be carefully evaluated and mutually agreed upon in consultation with healthcare providers. It is crucial to recognize that treatment may evolve due to the emergence of new risk factors, symptoms, disease progression, and advancements in treatment modalities. In the context of multidisciplinary AF teams, a coordinated approach involves assembling a diverse team tailored to meet individual patients' unique needs based on local services' availability.

Purpose Of Review: This paper reviewed the current literature on incidence, clinical manifestations, and risk factors of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR-T) cardiotoxicity.

Recent Findings: CAR-T therapy has emerged as a groundbreaking treatment for hematological malignancies since FDA approval in 2017. CAR-T therapy is however associated with a few side effects, among which cardiotoxicity is of significant concern.

Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common cardiac arrhythmia, poses challenges in predicting thromboembolic risk. While the CHADS-VASc (congestive heart failure, hypertension, age ≥ 75 years (doubled), type 2 diabetes mellitus, previous stroke, transient ischemic attack, or thromboembolism (doubled), vascular disease, age 65-74 years, and sex category) score remains essential, its limitations include failure to identify left atrial (LA) thrombus in some patients. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) provides superior detection of LA thrombi and thrombogenic factors compared to transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), improving risk stratification, especially in intermediate-risk groups.

Introduction: The risk of mortality associated with cardiac arrhythmias is considerable, and their diagnosis presents significant challenges, often resulting in misdiagnosis. This situation highlights the necessity for an automated, efficient, and real-time detection method aimed at enhancing diagnostic accuracy and improving patient outcomes.

Methods: The present study is centered on the development of a portable deep learning model for the detection of arrhythmias via electrocardiogram (ECG) signals, referred to as CardioAttentionNet (CANet).
