Prolonged QTc interval predicts poststroke paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) is often difficult to detect in patients with acute ischemic stroke. We aimed to assess the predictive value of a prolonged QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) in PAF detection after acute ischemic stroke. METHODS We enrolled 972 patients with acute ischemic stroke consecutively extracted from our observational stroke registry...
متن کاملProlonged PR Interval Predicts Clinical Recurrence of Atrial Fibrillation After Catheter Ablation
BACKGROUND A prolonged PR interval is known to be a poor prognostic factor in cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between PR interval and clinical outcome in patients undergoing radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) of atrial fibrillation (AF). METHODS AND RESULTS We prospectively included 576 patients with AF (75.5% male, 57.8±11.6 years old, 68...
متن کاملCanine model of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and paroxysmal atrial tachycardia.
Both autonomic nerve activity and electrical remodeling are important in atrial arrhythmogenesis. Therefore, dogs with sympathetic hyperinnervation, myocardial infarction (MI), and complete atrioventricular block (CAVB) may have a high incidence of atrial arrhythmias. We studied eight dogs (experimental group) with MI, CAVB, and sympathetic hyperinnervation induced either by nerve growth factor...
متن کاملInteratrial dyssynchrony on tissue Doppler imaging predicts progression to chronic atrial fibrillation in patients with non-valvular paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
OBJECTIVE To determine prospectively whether interatrial dyssynchrony detected by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) is useful for predicting the progression to chronic atrial fibrillation (CAF) in patients with non-valvular paroxysmal AF (PAF). METHODS Thirty-seven patients with non-valvular PAF were prospectively followed after echocardiography. The interval of time from initiation of the P wave ...
متن کاملPolyuria in Paroxysmal Tachycardia and Paroxysmal Atrial Flutter and Fibrillation.
When Paul Wood spoke about this to the British Cardiac Society in 1961, we were impressed by the originality of his work on a subject that so many had noticed but failed to investigate. A few months before his death in July 1962, when I asked him if his paper was ready for the journal, he said that he had not yet been able to get all the evidence he hoped for to establish the full explanation. ...
