A 67-year-old man with acute anterolateral myocardial infarction had recurrent ventricular fibrillation that required insertion of temporary pacemaker. When a permanent pacemaker was inserted stable ...

Minimizing atrial pacing does not alter the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) associated with sinus node dysfunction (SND), suggest results of a trial that randomly assigned patients with SND who had ...

Minimizing atrial pacing does not prevent atrial fibrillation in patients with sinus node dysfunction, according to late-breaking research presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2023.

AMSTERDAM -- Reducing atrial pacing didn't help prevent atrial fibrillation (Afib, or AF) in patients with sinus node dysfunction but did increase risk of fainting, the DANPACE II trial showed. The ...

Ablation plus cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) is superior to pharmacological rate control in reducing mortality in severely symptomatic permanent atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with a ...

There are several cardiac pacing options available to patients with sinus-node disease (SND), but each is associated with clinical disadvantages and the optimum strategy has not been identified. The ...
