Electrophysiological Recognition Of An Atrio-ventricular Mahaim Fibre Pathway.
Mahaim fibres are cardiac accessory bundles which can cause dangerous tachyarrhythmias. Despite their first description being many y ears ago, their recognition and diagnosis still proves difficult. The electrocardiographic features of Mahaim pathways are subtle and shared with other accessory pathways; as such, an electrophysio.. Read More

The Importance of Cardiopulmonary Arrest Registry
Since 1991, the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) applies registry templates to register cardiopulmonary arrest events and the treatment given to the patient in every case. This information is registered in a database that is useful to improve the cardiopulmonary resuscitation guidelines. For this reason, .. Read More

Tachycardia with Wide QRS Complex on a Cocaine Dependent Patient: Not Everything is what it Seems
Introduction: Ventricular arrhythmias related to cocaine may not respond to antiarrhythmic drugs and may need treatment with radiofrequency ablation. Case presentation: In this case we describe a 33-year-old man that presented to the emergency room complaining of chest discomfort and slight palpitations predominantly in the prec.. Read More

Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a common entity in patients due to the atherosclerotic plaque rupture or coronary embolism. We present a patient who had a mechanical aortic valve and was admitted to the hospital for a sub acute anterior ST elevation myocardial infarction due to the discontinuation of warfarin. In case of per.. Read More

Objective: The European Society of Cardiology, American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology guidelines on atrial fibrillation (AF) 2006 state that Sotalol should not be used in acute AF. We assessed the safety and efficacy of sotalol in acute AF when compared to other anti-arrhythmic drugs (ADD). Methods: A.. Read More

Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardias with narrow QRS are defined as rhythms originating from above the His bundle, heart rate higher 100 bpm and QRS complex of less than 120 ms in adults or less than 90 ms in children. They present a prevalence of up to 8/1000 individuals. The main presentations of these regular tachycardias.. Read More

Changes in Left Ventricular Global and Regional Longitudinal Strain during Right Ventricular Pacing
Background: LV strain and functions may be altered by Right ventricular apical pacing (RVAP). Right ventricular Septal pacing (RVSP) might be a better alternative. The detrimental effect of RV pacing may be mediated by regional LV impairment. Objectives: Our study aimed to demonstrate the short term impacts of right ventricular .. Read More

Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) for Heart Disease Determined by Genetic Factors
The application of PGD has currently been extended to an increasing number of common disorders with genetic predisposition, including inherited heart disease, the prevention and treatment of which presents an important challenge. The major problem is that no pre-clinical diagnosis and preventive management exists, with high risk.. Read More

Failure of Ventricular Capture and Pacemaker Exit Block Secondary to Moderate Hyperkalemia
An 81-year-old woman was admitted to our institution with bradicardia, weakness and presyncope. At admission physical examination revealed a pulse rate of 42 per minute, blood pressure of 95/50 mmHg, and an oxygen saturation of 93% on room air. The interrogation of the device showed a correct ventricular sensing and a threshold .. Read More
