Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cardiac arrhythmia with a lifetime risk of one in 4. Unfortunately, AF often remains undetected, particularly when it is paroxysmal, for which single time-point evaluation is less effective. Recently, unobtrusive cardiac arrhythmia monitoring devices have become available, providing the opportunity to conduct prolonged electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring in a patient-friendly manner.

The Single Ventricle Reconstruction (SVR) Trial was the first randomized clinical trial of a surgical approach for treatment of congenital heart disease. Infants with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) and other single right ventricle (RV) anomalies were randomized to a modified Blalock Taussig Thomas shunt (mBTTS) or a right-ventricular-to-pulmonary-artery shunt (RVPAS) at the time of the Norwood procedure.

Integrating hemodynamics with ventricular and valvular remodeling in aortic stenosis. A paradigm shift in therapeutic decision making

Aortic valve stenosis (AS) has traditionally been approached in hemodynamic terms. Although hemodynamics and symptoms have formed the basis of recommending interventional treatment in AS, other factors reflecting left ventricular and valvular and/or vascular remodeling are equally important for the prognosis and outcome of patients with AS.

The Surgical Treatment for Ischemic Heart Failure (STICH) trial found that routine use of coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) improved mean quality of life (QoL) scores relative to guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy. However, mean differences in QoL scores do not provide what patients want to know when facing a high-risk/high-benefit treatment choice.

Although primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) is the preferred intervention for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), not all patients are admitted directly to an emergency department (ED) with 24/7/365 pPCI capabilities. This is partly due to a lack of a national system of known pPCI-capable EDs. Our objective was to create a unified, national database of confirmed 24/7/365 pPCI centers co-located in hospitals with EDs.

Several surrogate biomarkers were used to assess for IR, such as hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp, which still remains impractical in a clinical setting. We used simpler biomarkers as a surrogate for IR.
