Supraventricular Tachycardia: From Catheter to Catheter Ablation
Journal Title: Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine and Cardiology - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
I had a privilege of having a really attentive and good medical student rotating through my cardiology office for a month. One day I explained to her in greater details that in spite of all the tests, devices and everything else, the patient history is still the MOST important aspect of overall medical evaluation of a patient. With this advice, I sent her to go to see a patient of mine admitted to the hospital with palpitations.

Autonomic Innervation from the Aortic Root Ventricular Ganglionated Plexi to the Pulmonary Vein: A Novel Pathway
Background: Autonomic nerve innervation pathway from the ventricular GP to the pulmonary veins (PV) remains unclear. Aim: This study investigates the autonomic innervations from aortic root ventricular GP to the PVs. Ni...
Potential Arrhythmogenic Risk of DDI/DDD Pacing Modes During Atrial Fibrillation
In patients with paroxysmal-persistent atrial fibrillation (AF), DDI and DDD pacing modes can be used to assess the clinical burden of AF. This report shows how the DDI mode might trigger ventricular tachyarrhythmias dur...
