Indications for His bundle recordings.

Cardiovasc Clin

Published: February 1981

AI Article Synopsis

  • - His bundle studies have become less necessary for routine diagnostics but still serve as a valuable research tool in cardiac electrophysiology.
  • - Ongoing research using His bundle recordings includes studying reentrant phenomena and the effects of various drugs on the heart.
  • - The technique will also help evaluate drug effectiveness for hard-to-treat arrhythmias and deepen the understanding of complex arrhythmias.

Article Abstract

While the extrapolation of data derived from His bundle studies performed over the past 10 years has lessened the need to apply the technique for diagnostic clinical purposes, His bundle recordings remain a useful clinical research tool for better understanding of cardiac electrophysiology. Some of the areas of continued research to which the technique will most certainly be applied are: (1) study of reentrant phenomena involving the atrial, junctional, and ventricular regions of the heart, (2) investigation of the mechanisms of action of new and old drugs on the heart, (3) evaluation of effectiveness of drug treatment in resistant cardiac arrhythmias, and (4) understanding of complex arrhythmias.

Background And Objectives: Three-column osteotomy (3CO) offers substantial spinal deformity correction. Thoracic neurovascular bundle sacrifice is often required, and anterior spinal artery (ASA) perfusion can be compromised. Spinal angiography allows localization of variable ASA vascular contribution.

Detecting anomalies in attributed networks has become a subject of interest in both academia and industry due to its wide spectrum of applications. Although most existing methods achieve desirable performance by the merit of various graph neural networks, the way they bundle node-affiliated multidimensional attributes into a whole for embedding calculation hinders their ability to model and analyze anomalies at the fine-grained feature level. To characterize anomalies from each feature dimension, we propose Eagle, a deep framework based on bipartitE grAph learninG for anomaLy dEtection.

Permanent Left Bundle Branch Area DF-4 Defibrillator Lead Implantation-Feasibility, Procedural Caveats, Safety, and Follow-Up.

Department of Cardiac Electrophysiology and Pacing, Arrhythmia Heart Failure Academy, The Madras Medical Mission, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.

Introduction: Permanent implantation of a DF-4 implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD) lead in the left bundle branch area (LBBA-ICD) is the next paradigm in amalgamating cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and defibrillation. We systematically investigated feasibility/success rate, procedural caveats, and complications associated with a permanent DF-4 LBBA ICD implant and pertinent data at short-term follow-up.

Methods: We prospectively attempted implantation of 7 Fr Durata (Abbott, Chicago, IL, USA) single coil DF-4 ICD lead at the LBBA using a fixed-curve non-deflectable CPS locator delivery sheath.

Background: Humanitarian mine action (HMA) stakeholders have an organized presence with well-resourced medical capability in many conflict and post-conflict settings. Humanitarian mine action has the potential to positively augment local trauma care capacity for civilian casualties of explosive ordnance (EO) and explosive weapons (EWs). Yet at present, few strategies exist for coordinated engagement between HMA and the health sector to support emergency care system strengthening to improve outcomes among EO/EW casualties.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to find out the risk factors for moderate to severe perivalvular leakage (PVL) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in patients with severe aortic stenosis.
  • Researchers analyzed data from 128 patients who underwent TAVR, focusing on various factors like valve implantation depth and left ventricular measurements.
  • The results identified several independent risk factors and led to the creation of a predictive model with a high accuracy (area under the ROC curve of 0.911) to help identify patients at a higher risk for developing moderate to severe PVL post-surgery.
