Randomized controlled trial of Amigo® robotically controlled versus manually controlled ablation of the cavo-tricuspid isthmus using a contact force ablation catheter.

Journal of interventional cardiac electrophysiology : an international journal of arrhythmias and pacing
BACKGROUND: Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) of the cavo-tricuspid isthmus (CTI) is a common treatment for atrial flutter (AFL). However, achieving bi-directional CTI conduction block may be difficult, partly due to catheter instability.

Substantial superiority of Niobe ES over Niobe II system in remote-controlled magnetic pulmonary vein isolation.

International journal of cardiology
BACKGROUND: Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AFib) primarily relies upon pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), but such procedures are associated with significant X-ray exposure. The newer Epoch system has been developed so as to enable more preci...

Noninvasive Personalization of a Cardiac Electrophysiology Model From Body Surface Potential Mapping.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
GOAL: We use noninvasive data (body surface potential mapping, BSPM) to personalize the main parameters of a cardiac electrophysiological (EP) model for predicting the response to different pacing conditions.

Support vector machine-based assessment of the T-wave morphology improves long QT syndrome diagnosis.

Europace : European pacing, arrhythmias, and cardiac electrophysiology : journal of the working groups on cardiac pacing, arrhythmias, and cardiac cellular electrophysiology of the European Society of Cardiology
AIMS: Diagnosing long QT syndrome (LQTS) is challenging due to a considerable overlap of the QTc-interval between LQTS patients and healthy controls. The aim of this study was to investigate the added value of T-wave morphology markers obtained from ...

Machine Learning Algorithm Predicts Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Outcomes: Lessons From the COMPANION Trial.

Circulation. Arrhythmia and electrophysiology
BACKGROUND: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) reduces morbidity and mortality in heart failure patients with reduced left ventricular function and intraventricular conduction delay. However, individual outcomes vary significantly. This study so...

Beat-to-beat variability of P-wave in patients suffering from atrial fibrillation.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The aim of this paper was to analyze the P-wave variability over time in patients suffering from Atrial Fibrillation (AF). Behind some time-domain and morphological features of the P-wave template, two novel indexes of P-wave variability have been es...

A cardiac electrical activity model based on a cellular automata system in comparison with neural network model.

Pakistan journal of pharmaceutical sciences
Cardiac Electrical Activity is commonly distributed into three dimensions of Cardiac Tissue (Myocardium) and evolves with duration of time. The indicator of heart diseases can occur randomly at any time of a day. Heart rate, conduction and each elect...
