Prevalent in over one-half of patients, atrial fibrillation (AF) is a well-recognized risk feature
for the development of heart failure (HF) and also a consequence of the same disease (2) …

Objectives: This study evaluated the temporal association between atrial high-rate episodes
(AHREs) and sustained ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) in a remotely monitored cohort with …

The IMPACT trial (ClinicalTrials. gov identifier NCT00559988) included 2718 patients with
implanted cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) or cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) …

Background Device-detected atrial high-rate episodes (AHREs) were associated with an
increased thromboembolic risk. Although limited data regarding the long-term prognosis of …

Atrial high rate episodes (AHREs), also termed, subclinical atrial tachyarrhythmias or
subclinical atrial fibrillation (AF) are an important cardiovascular condition. Advancement in …

Cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) can detect atrial arrhythmias, ie atrial
high-rate episodes (AHRE). The thrombo-embolic risk in patients showing AHRE appears to …

Background Subclinical atrial high rate episodes (AHREs) detected by implanted devices in
patients with no history of atrial fibrillation (AF) have been associated with an increased risk …

Background In Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial–Reduce Inappropriate
Therapy (MADIT-RIT), high-rate cutoff (arm B) and delayed therapy (arm C) reduced the risk …

Background The occurrence of high atrial rate episodes (AHRE) is growing in importance
due to the increasing number of patients with implantable cardiac electronic devices (CIED) …

Self-terminating atrial arrhythmias are commonly detected on continuous rhythm monitoring,
eg by pacemakers or defibrillators. It is unclear whether the presence of these arrhythmias …
