Background Telemetry monitoring (TM) with or without intensive care unit (ICU) admission is the standard of after Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Regarding to improvements technique and procedural results, TM may be considered only in selected patients. We aimed confirm feasibility safety selective patients undergoing TAVR. Methods prospectively evaluated 449 consecutive Patients...

Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) have been shown to increase the functional status and survival of patients with end -stage heart failure. There is limited data regarding prevalence arrhythmias conduction disease in implanted LVADs. Our objective was determine hospitalized LVADs using National Inpatient Sample (NIS) from 2016-2019. A retrospective study done Nationwide 17,125 hospitalisa...

Abstract Background Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) remains associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a viable tool for identifying markers: deep learning (DL) can be used to automate measurements on the ECG trace dimensionality reduction (DR) algorithms grouping patients based ECG, imaging genetic markers. Such an AI-based pipeline aid in phenotyping by cha...

Abstract Background High-degree atrioventricular (AV) block and permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation represent major complications after transcatheter aortic valve (TAVI). Extension of indication for TAVI towards subjects with lower surgical risk requires to reduce the likelihood requirement implantation. Data on role membranous septum length as potential predictor AV are scarce. Purpose We e...

This study was conducted to assess the incidence of abnormalities of ventricular depolarization (late potentials) in children with sinus rhythm after open heart surgery and their relation to spontaneous ventricular tachycardia. Open heart surgery, particularly operations involving ventriculotomy, may predispose patients to the development of ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibri...

Abstract Background Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD) is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder that have gained attention due to the availability of therapeutic options. Disease specific therapy (DST), either by enzyme replacement or oral pharmacological chaperone, mainstay for AFD treatment. Although its widespread use, few data are available on electrocardiographic variations associated with DST....

The first part of the ECG shows a wide QRS tachycardia with a right bundle branch block (RBBB) morphology, an inferior axis and a heart rate of 240 bpm (tachycardia cycle length (TCL) of 250 ms). The middle part shows a narrow QRS tachycardia with an intermediate axis and the same heart rate of 240 bpm (TCL 250 ms). In the last part a wide QRS tachycardia is observed, although with a different,...

This paper presents a new approach for feature reduction by using orthogonal rotations. Wavelet coefficients for beat segments are taken as features which are reduced by factor analysis method using orthogonal rotations. LDA (Linear Discriminant Analysis) and ANN (Artificial Neural Network) classifiers are used for classification. The signals are taken from MIT-BIH arrhythmia database to classi...

A 43-year-old man from a rural area in Brazil presented to his physician with complaints of palpitations and lightheadedness, mainly on exertion. An electrocardiogram (ECG) showed right bundle-branch block (RBBB), left anterior fascicular block (LAFB), and a premature ventricular contraction (PVC) (Figure 1A). Echocardiography revealed a mildly depressed left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction ...
