DOI: 10.1016/j.hrthm.2019.02.025
Abstract: BACKGROUND Ventricular arrhythmias (VA) in cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) are frequently refractory to both antiarrhythmic drug (AAD) therapy and catheter ablation (CA). Cardiac sympathetic denervation (CSD) has been shown to reduce VA burden and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jce.13862
Abstract: We present the case of a 45‐year‐old male patient with dilated cardiomyopathy who suffers from multiple implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) shocks. The analysis of the ICD tracing and the electrophysiological study allows to conclude that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1159/000542172
Abstract: Abstract Objective: Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) are the standard treatment for patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF ≤35%) to reduce the risk of sudden cardiac death. Loop diuretics can cause electrolyte imbalances, leading… read more here.

DOI: 10.1161/circep.119.007600
Abstract: BACKGROUND In patients with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD), shocks are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Therefore, we conducted this study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of antiarrhythmic drugs and catheter ablation (CA) in… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: In the PARTITA trial (Does Timing of Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation Affect Prognosis in Patients With an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator?), antitachycardia pacing (ATP) predicted the occurrence of implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) shocks. Catheter ablation of… read more here.

DOI: 10.7326/m22-1566
Abstract: BACKGROUND Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) improve survival in patients at risk for cardiac arrest, but are associated with intravascular lead-related complications. The subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD), with no intravascular components, was developed to minimize lead-related complications.… read more here.
