DOI: 10.1016/j.hrcr.2019.10.013
Abstract: Simple measures such as increasing beta-blocker may take care of a patient’s symptoms. Introduction Tachycardias like atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardias are seen in patients who have undergone permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantations; however, supraventricular tachycardias… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tbme.2022.3203653
Abstract: Conventional biventricular (BiV) pacing cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an established treatment for heart failure patients. Recently, multiple novel CRT delivering technologies such as His-Bundle pacing have been investigated as alternative pacing strategies for optimal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/apha.13925
Abstract: The Purkinje fibers convey the electrical impulses at much higher speed than the working myocardial cells. Thus, the distribution of the Purkinje network is of paramount importance for the timing and coordination of ventricular activation.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jce.13622
Abstract: Catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) may include induction of VT and localization of VT‐exit site. Our aim was to assess localization performance of a novel statistical pace‐mapping method and compare it with performance of… read more here.
