INTRODUCTION Pleth Variability Index (PVI) is a new algorithm that allows continuous and automatic estimation of respiratory variations in the pulse oximeter waveform amplitude. Our aim was to test its ability to detect changes in preload induced by passive leg raising (PLR) in spontaneously breathing volunteers. METHODS We conducted a prospective observational study. Twenty-five spontaneousl...
BACKGROUND Respiratory variations in the pulse oximeter plethysmographic waveform amplitude (deltaPOP) are sensitive to changes in preload and can predict fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients. However, they cannot be easily calculated from a bedside monitor. Pleth variability index (PVI, Masimo Corp., Irvine, CA) is a new algorithm that automatically calculates deltaPOP. The...
Since the pulmonary veins (PVs) were identified as a major source of AF triggers, ablation strategies targeting the PVs have evolved from focal ablation inside the PVs to wide area circumferential PV isolation (PVI) which at this juncture is the standard approach. Despite the widespread popularity of PVI, a universal definition is lacking. While "entrance block" is a generally accepted endpoint...
BACKGROUND For the past decade, electric pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has become a procedure implemented worldwide for the treatment of atrial fibrillation. Currently, 2 main approaches are used for PVI: ostial isolation of the PVs and wide antral PVI. The aims of this systematic review are to evaluate the relative merits of each technique with a pooled comparative analysis of efficacy and co...
BACKGROUND Pulmonary vein (PV) isolation (PVI) has emerged as an effective therapy for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). However, AF recurs in up to 50% of patients, generally because of recovery of PV conduction. Adenosine given during the initial procedure may reveal dormant PV conduction, thereby identifying the need for additional ablation, leading to improved outcomes. The Adenosine Fol...
BACKGROUND During pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), a circular lasso catheter is positioned at the junction between the left atrium (LA) and the pulmonary vein (PV) to confirm PVI. The Rhythmia mapping system uses the Orion mini-basket catheter with 64 electrodes instead of the lasso catheter. However, its feasibility to determine PVI has not been studied. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study wa...
BACKGROUND Administration of exogenous progesterone for luteal phase support has become a standard of practice. Intramuscular (IM) injections of progesterone in oil (PIO) and vaginal administration of progesterone are the primary routes of administration. This report describes the administration preferences expressed by women with infertility that were given progesterone vaginal insert (PVI) or...
This study was designed to determine whether endocardial high-frequency stimulation at the pulmonary vein (PV) antrums can localize cardiac autonomic ganglionated plexi (GP) and whether ablation at these sites can evoke a vagal response and provide a long-term benefit after PV isolation (PVI) for atrial fibrillation (AF). Radiofrequency ablation of each PV antrum was performed in 21 patients wi...
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been identified as associated with the onset and propagation of atrial fibrillation (AF) and predicts recurrences of AF after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). Vice versa, it has never been investigated whether PVI influences OSA. However, it has been controversial whether a restored atrial function can affect the course of OSA. There-fore, we have ass...
OBJECTIVES We aimed to determine the safety and efficacy of pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with impaired left ventricular (LV) systolic function. BACKGROUND To date, PVI has been performed primarily in patients with normal LV function. Yet, many AF patients have impaired LV systolic function. The outcomes of PVI in patients with impaired LV systolic functi...
