Rate vs Rhythm Control in Atrial Fibrillation Rate vs rhythm control as a management strategy in atrial fibrillation has been a long standing topic for debate. Though at
Naming of components of QRS complex Initial negative deflection of the QRS complex is named a q or Q wave depending on the amplitude. Usually waves less than
ECG Quiz with discussion – Pacing What are the important findings and diagnosis? ECG shows a regular wide QRS rhythm at a rate of 60/minute. Each QRS complex
Pulsed field ablation of cardiac arrhythmia Commonest form of ablation of cardiac arrhythmias uses radiofrequency current delivered through a catheter to produce localised tissue heating and damage of
Left bundle branch-optimized cardiac resynchronization therapy (LOT-CRT) Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is usually done by biventricular pacing with a right ventricular lead and a left ventricular lead in
Implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) Implantable cardioverter defibrillator, known in short as ICD, is a device which monitors the heart rhythm continuously and treats it electrically when needed. As
Cardioneuroablation for vasovagal syncope Cardioneuroablation is a new therapeutic option for often difficult to treat vasovagal syncope. Cardioneuroablation is performed using radiofrequency catheter ablation of ganglionated plexi from
Heated saline-enhanced radiofrequency ablation – New concept We have heard of cooled saline tip radiofrequency catheter ablation for quite some time, which allows the formation of deeper lesions.
New onset IRBBB A PubMed search for new onset incomplete right bundle branch block returned 7 citations of which only two were on incomplete right bundle branch block.
Pacing system analyzer for testing during implantation Pacing system analyzer is used for testing various parameters like R wave amplitude, pacing threshold and lead impedance during implantation of
