[EN] Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common heart rhythm disturbance in clinical practice. It often starts with asymptomatic and very short episodes, which are extremely difficult to detect without long-term monitoring ...
[EN] Background:
Atrial fibrosis can promote atrial fibrillation (AF). Electroanatomic mapping (EAM) can provide information regarding local voltage abnormalities that may be used as a surrogate marker for fibrosis. Specific ...
[ES] Para contribuir a un abordaje optimizado de la ablacion por cateter (AC) de fibrilacion auricular (FA), durante los ultimos anos se han introducido complicados indices destinados a discriminar FA paroxistica de ...
[EN] Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of
death, with hypertension (HT) being its main risk factor.
Its complications can be avoided with early treatment, but
since these patients do not present any ...

[EN] Electrical cardioversion (ECV) is an effective and low-cost rhythm control strategy for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). Because of its limited mid- and long-term success rates, prediction of early failure could ...
[EN] Hypertension is a major risk factor for many cardiovascular diseases, which are the leading cause of death worldwide. Regular monitoring is essential to provide early diagnosis since most patients with elevated blood ...
[EN] Catheter ablation (CA) is the star treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, important issues regarding its procedure have only been superficially explored. While universal CA effect is assessed, the role of ...
[EN] Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, and in response to increasing clinical demand, a variety of signals and indices have been utilized for its analysis, which include complex fractionated ...
[ES] Dentro de las tecnicas existentes para el control del ritmo cardiaco en fibrilacion auricular (FA), una de las mas extendidas es la cardioversion electrica (CVE). Esta tecnica, de aplicacion sencilla y bajo coste, ...

[EN] For persistent atrial fibrillation (AF), a low-cost, simple and effective rhythm control strategy is electrical cardioversion (ECV). This procedure presents high mid- and long-term AF recurrence rates, so anticipation ...
[EN] Analysis of coronary sinus (CS) electrograms (EGMs) is vastly used for the assessment of the atrial fibrillation (AF) substrate. As a catheter consists of five dipoles (distal, mid-distal, medial, mid-proximal, ...
[EN] The analysis of coronary sinus (CS) electrograms (EGMs) during catheter ablation (CA) of atrial fibrillation (AF) is highly important for AF substrate evaluation. However, channels of the CS catheter may be affected ...
[EN] Atrial substrate modification after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (pAF) can be assessed non-invasively by analyzing P-wave duration in the electrocardiogram (ECG). However, whether ...
