This issue consists of approximately 50 case studies that touch on different aspects of complex arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation, ventricular and supraventricular tachycardia, acute MI, and troubles with cardiac devices.
This special case-based issue of Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics features a selection of cases on the following topics: Use of the Surface ECG to Define the Nature of Challenging Arrhythmias; Diagnostic and Prognostic Implications of Surface Recordings from Patients with A-V Block; Supraventricular Tachycardia; Ventricular Tachycardia; Atrial Fibrillation and Flutter; Troubleshooting Device Function; Adult Congenital Cardiac Disease; and Arrhythmias in Patients with Genetic Arrhythmia Syndromes.
This issue of Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics covers arrhythmias in athletes, which can be a cause of morbidity and mortality. Expert authors review the most current information available about management of ventricular arrhythmias, atrial fibrillation, bradyarrhythmias, syncope and other conditions. Preparticipation screening, defibrillator use, and prevention are also discussed. Keep up-to-the-minute with the latest developments in this important aspect of cardiac electrophysiology practice.
This issue is a valuable tool to help electrophysiologists interpret complex ECGs so they can better understand arrhythmia mechanisms. Organized by cases, this issue illustrates many of the classic electrocardiographic findings and phenomena that every electrophysiologist should know. Study of this issue demonstrates a systematic way to analyze arrhythmia mechanisms.
Debates and controversies about how to treat difficult problems or conditions abound in cardiac electrophysiology. This issue attempts to bring together a variety of controversial subjects and to present differing views on how to resolve these questions so clinicians will have a handy guide to the most current thinking about these difficult subjects.
This issue consists of 17 case studies, each involving a difficult decision that has to be made in the catheterization laboratory. Reading about the cases and seeing the ECGs will help cardiac electrophysiologists sharpen their clinical skills. The cases are also useful reading for those studying for board certification.
This issue of Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics covers remote monitoring in heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and stroke/TIA among other conditions. The issue also includes cardiac and vascular pressure sensors and leadless cardiac pacing, helping the clinician to keep current with the latest advances in technology.
This issue of Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, Guest Edited by Giuseppe Bagliani, Roberto De Ponti, and Fabio Leonelli, will focus on Interpreting Complex Arrhythmias. Topics include, but are not limited to: Simple and complex Arrhythmias; Standard ECG recording; Advanced cardiac signal recording; P and QRS in arrhythmias: identification, analysis and relationship; The comparative value of basic and arrhythmia ECG in the interpretation of arrhythmic mechanism; Challenges in Bradycardias interpretation; Challenges in Narrow QRS tachycardia interpretation; Challenging cases of Wide complex tachycardias; QRS variations during arrhythmia: mechanisms and substrates; Polymorphic ventricular tachycardia: differential diagnosis; Arrhythmias due to acquired or inherited abnormalities of Ventricular repolarization; Arrhythmias in patients with implantable devices; Complex arrhythmias due to reversible causes; and Hidden complexities in routine adult and paediatric arrhythmias interpretation.
This issue of Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics covers mapping of atrial tachycardias post-atrial fibrillation ablation. Expert authors review the most current information available about setting up the electrogram display, basic principles of conventional mapping, 3D mapping, and diagnosis of several tachycardias, including pulmonary vein tachycardia, macroreentrant atrial tachycardia, and atrial tachycardia. Keep up-to-the-minute with the latest developments in this rapidly evolving technology.
This issue of Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, Guest Edited by Drs. Fermin C. Garcia, Luis C. Saenz, and Pasquale Santangeli, is dedicated to Intracardiac Echo Imaging in Atrial and Ventricular Arrhythmia Ablation. This is one of four issues selected each year by the series Consulting Editors, Ranjan K. Thakur and Andrea Natale. Topics include, but are not limited to: How to use intracardiac echography to recognize normal cardiac anatomy, Intracardiac echography to guide catheter ablation of ventricular arrhythmias in ischemic cardiomyopathy, Intracardiac echography to guide ablation of parahisian arrhythmias, Utility of ICE to guide transseptal catheterization for different EP procedures, Intracardiac echography to guide catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation, Role of intracardiac echography for transcatheter occlusion of left atrial appendage, Intracardiac echography to guide catheter ablation of idiopathic ventricular arrythmias, Intracardiac echography to guide catheter ablation of ventricular arrhythmias in non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, Intracardiac echography to guide mapping and ablation of arrhythmias in congenital heart disease patients, Prevention and early recognition of complications during catheter ablation by Intracardiac echography, Intracardiac echography to evaluate radiofrequency lesion creation and Image integration using intracardiac echography and 3-D reconstruction for mapping and ablation of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias.
