Background: The ability to non-invasively measure left atrial pressure would facilitate the identification of patients at risk of pulmonary congestion and guide proactive heart failure care. Wearable cardiac monitors, which record single-lead electrocardiogram data, provide information that can be leveraged to infer left atrial pressures.
Methods: We developed a deep neural network using single-lead electrocardiogram data to determine when the left atrial pressure is elevated. The model was developed and internally evaluated using a cohort of 6739 samples from the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and externally validated on a cohort of 4620 samples from a second institution. We then evaluated model on patch-monitor electrocardiographic data on a small prospective cohort.
Results: The model achieves an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.80 for detecting elevated left atrial pressures on an internal holdout dataset from MGH and 0.76 on an external validation set from a second institution. A further prospective dataset was obtained using single-lead electrocardiogram data with a patch-monitor from patients who underwent right heart catheterization at MGH. Evaluation of the model on this dataset yielded an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.875 for identifying elevated left atrial pressures for electrocardiogram signals acquired close to the time of the right heart catheterization procedure.
Conclusions: These results demonstrate the utility and the potential of ambulatory cardiac hemodynamic monitoring with electrocardiogram patch-monitors.

Background: There is a growing body of data to support the presence of sex disparities in outcomes of cardiovascular related hospitalizations. Despite this, there remains a paucity of data on relationships between sex and in-hospital outcomes in patients receiving a left atrial appendage occlusion device (LAAOD).
Methods: We examined the 2016-2020 Nationwide Readmission Database to identify patients with Atrial Fibrillation receiving a LAAOD.

Background: Despite the significant advances made in the field of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to simulate the left atrium (LA) in atrial fibrillation (AF) conditions, the connection between atrial structure, flow dynamics, and blood stagnation in the left atrial appendage (LAA) remains unclear. Deepening our understanding of this relationship would have important clinical implications, as the thrombi formed within the LAA are one of the main causes of stroke.
Aim: To highlight and better understand the fundamental role of the PV orientation in forming atrial flow patterns and systematically quantifying its effect on blood stasis within the LAA.

An 88-year-old male with a history of cervical spondylosis (status post laminectomy of C2-C3 and laminoplasty of C4-C5), chronic congestive heart failure (CHF), pulmonary embolism, and lumbar spinal stenosis presented to an outpatient sports medicine clinic with neck pain following a fall five days prior due to loss of balance. He reported pain on the left side worsened by movement and accompanied by neck "clicking." A physical exam showed severe limitation in cervical spine extension limited by pain and loss of lordotic curve and a neurologic exam demonstrated weakness in the left leg secondary to a previous back surgery.

Background: The correlation between central airway anatomical parameters and demographic factors, such as sex, age, weight, height, body mass index (BMI), and cardiac factors, remains unclear. This study examined the correlation between these factors and central airway anatomical parameters in adult patients.
Methods: All consecutive patients who underwent lung mass surgery at our hospital between December 2020 and December 2023 were included in this study.
