DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehz747.0574
Abstract: Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is the treatment of choice in patients (pts) with symptomatic atrial fibrillation. Durable pulmonary veins isolation (PVI) seems to be associated with a lower risk of AF recurrence, but the predictor… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jce.15610
Abstract: Arrhythmia recurrence after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is common and often linked to pulmonary vein reconnection. In patients with arrhythmia recurrences despite durable PVI the optimal ablation approach is… read more here.

DOI: 10.4022/jafib.2047
Abstract: Background The class III antiarrhythmic sotalol is renally eliminated with a dose-related propensity to cause adverse drug reactions (ADR) potentially leading to life-threatening arrhythmias. Although product labeling recommends once daily dosing in patients with renal… read more here.
