DOI: 10.1053/j.jvca.2025.11.035
Abstract: Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO) in cardiogenic shock may exacerbate left ventricular distention, necessitating effective decompression strategies. While multiple approaches exist, transesophageal echocardiography-guided transseptal decompression offers potential advantages as a bedside procedure. This study… read more here.

DOI: 10.1148/radiol.240587
Abstract: Background Ventricular arrhythmias (VAs), including ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation, present substantial therapeutic challenges due to their high morbidity, mortality, and increasing prevalence. Current treatments often prove infeasible or inadequate in patients with refractory VAs.… read more here.
