This article analyses the efficiency of the leitmotiv derived from the song Moon River in Breakfast at Tiffany's. This leitmotiv is a musical element (the first three notes suffice to recognise Moon River) with the narrative ...
The analysis of P-wave variability from the electrocardiogram (ECG) has been suggested as an early predictor of the onset of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAP). Hence, a preventive treatment could be used to avoid the ...
[EN] Objective: To identify preoperative parameters of anatomo-electrical atrial remodelling in order to identify the subgroup of patients more favourable to long-term sinus rhythm (SR) re-establishment after concomitant ...

[EN] The electrocardiogram (ECG) is the most widely used method for diagnosis of heart diseases, where a good quality of recordings allows the proper interpretation and identification of physiological and pathological ...
Prediction of defibrillation success is of vital importance to guide therapy and improve the survival of patients suffering out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Currently, the most efficient methods to predict shock ...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia in clinical practice. Although its termination mechanisms are not still completely known, previous works have reported significant electrocardiographic differences ...
Background and Objectives: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac ar- rhythmia and a growing healthcare burden worldwide. It is often asymptomatic and may appear as episodes of very short duration; ...

Background
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common supraventricular arrhythmia in the clinical practice, being the subject of intensive research.
Methods
The present work introduces two different Wavelet Transform ...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is today the most common sustained arrhythmia, its treatment being not completely satisfactory. Electrical activity organization analysis within the atria could play a key role in the improvement ...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in routine clinical practice. Despite many years of research, its mechanisms still are not well understood, thus reducing the effectiveness of AF treatments. Nowadays, ...

[ES] Objetivos: Desarrollar un modelo predictivo multivariante del accidente cerebrovascular (ACV) intrahospitalario tras cirugía de bypass coronario. Métodos: Veintiséis mil trescientos cuarenta y siete pacientes incluidos ...
The present work introduces the first study on the P-wave morphological variability two hours preceding the onset of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). The development of non-invasive methods able to track P-wave ...
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 ...

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 ...
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 ...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia in clinical practice, increasing the risk of stroke and all-cause mortality. Its mechanisms are poorly understood, thus leading to different theories and ...
