(integrated sensing). After appropriate detection, ATP may be initiated for appropriate rhythm
disturbances, or a defibrillation shock may be delivered between 2 coil electrodes or …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cardiac arrhythmia responsible for significant morbidity
and mortality. In recent years, progress has been made in determining the genetic …

BACKGROUND: Shock-induced pain produces substantial morbidity in recipients of
implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs). This pain likely derives from activation of …

Dieser kardiologische Titel widmet sich den speziellen Problemen von Herzkrankheiten im
höheren Lebensalter. Der Autor präsentiert die Erkenntnisse aktueller Studien in Hinblick …

Internal cardioversion has been developed as an alternative technique for patients who are
resistant to external DC cardioversion of atrial fibrillation (AF) and was found to be …

BACKGROUND:“Begetting,” a mechanistic tenet of atrial fibrillation (AF), stipulates that the
rate of recurrence of AF after cardioversion is proportional to the preceding arrhythmia …

Aims Recent studies have tested different atrial pacing rates, modes, and sites for preventing
atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence. Present generation pacemakers offer reliable electrograms …

Optional statement Ablation of the atrioventricular conduction system and pacemaker
implantation is the preferred procedure for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) in whom a rate …

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to identify clinical predictors of atrial
defibrillation thresholds (DFTs) with standard implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) …
