[EN] In the management of atrial fibrillation (AF), electrical cardioversion (ECV) is a common treatment. Although its initial success rate is high, many patients present AF recurrence after some weeks or months. Hence, ...
The Cox-maze surgery is an effective procedure for terminating atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients requiring open-heart surgery associated with another heart disease. After the intervention, regardless of the patient's ...

[EN] Rotor-guided ablation has opened new perspectives into the therapy of atrial fibrillation (AF). Analysis of the spatio-temporal cardiac excitation patterns in the frequency and phase domains has demonstrated the ...
[EN] Background Proactive cooling with a novel cooling device has been shown to reduce endoscopically identified thermal injury during radiofrequency (RF) ablation for the treatment of atrial fibrillation using medium power ...
[EN] [Background]
Identification of arrhythmogenic regions remains a challenge in persistent atrial fibrillation (persAF). Frequency and phase analysis allows identification of potential ablation targets.
[Objective]
This ...
[EN] Ablation of pulmonary veins has emerged as a key procedure for normal rhythm restoration in atrial fibrillation patients. However, up to half of ablated Atrial fibrillation (AF) patients suffer recurrences during the ...

The most extended noninvasive technique for medical diagnosis and analysis of atrial fibrillation (AF) relies on the surface elctrocardiogram (ECG). In order to take optimal profit of the ECG in the study of AF, it is ...
[EN] Objective: This study proposes a reference database, composed of a large number of simulated ECG signals in atrial fibrillation (AF), for investigating the performance of methods for extraction of atrial fibrillatory ...

[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] Cooled Balloon Prevents Thermal Injury During RF Ablation.
Introduction: The use of a cooled intraesophageal balloon has recently been proposed to minimize the risk of thermal injury in the esophagus during radiofrequency ...
[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] A normal cardiac activation starts in the sinoatrial node and then spreads throughout the atrial myocardium, thus defining the P-wave of the electrocardiogram. However, when the onset of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation ...

[EN] Background: Segmentation of computed tomography (CT) is important for many
clinical procedures including personalized cardiac ablation for the management of
cardiac arrhythmias. While segmentation can be automated by ...
[EN] Atrial ¿brillation (AF) is currently the most common cardiac arrhythmia, with catheter ablation (CA) of the pulmonary veins (PV) being its ¿rst line therapy. Ablation of complex fractionated atrial electrograms (CFAEs) ...
This paper proposes the first non-invasive method for direct and short-time regularity quantification of atrial fibrillatory (f) waves from the surface ECG in atrial fibrillation (AF). Regularity is estimated by computing ...
