Prognostic value of cardiac deceleration capacity in patients with atrial fibrillation after catheter ablation: A systematic review and meta ‐analysis
ConclusionThe high DC postablation was associated with the risk of AF recurrence, suggesting that DC may act as a prognostic indicator in AF patients treated with CA. (Source: Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology)

A device ‐related fistula between coronary artery and left atrial appendage following left atrial appendage closure: Case presentation
ConclusionCAAF is a rare complication after LAAC but may be underestimated, especially for lobe-disk designed occluders. Therefore, CAG is perhaps necessary to detect this complication. (Source: Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology)

Voltage and propagation mapping: New tools to improve successful ablation of atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia
ConclusionWe found correlation between LVB and CP with the site of effective ablation, identifying a voltage range useful for standardized LVB identification. These techniques could be useful to identify ablation site and minimize radiation exposure. (Source: Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology)

Outcomes of tricuspid regurgitation after lead extraction
ConclusionIn our single-center analysis, extraction of leads across the TV did not significantly affect the extent of TR in most patients. Laser lead extraction was associated with a higher rate of worsening TR after extraction. (Source: Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology)

One ‐year outcomes of pulmonary vein isolation with a novel cryoballoon: Primary results of the FROZEN AF trial
ConclusionsThis novel cryoballoon may facilitate PVI to treat PAF, providing more options to address the variety of anatomies present in patients with PAF. This cryoballoon system proved to be safe and effective for treatment of patients with drug refractory or drug intolerant PAF. (Source: Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology)

Paced QRS morphology mimicking complete left bundle branch block induced by right ventricular pacing is associated with pacing ‐induced cardiomyopathy
ConclusionCLBBB-like paced QRS may be a novel risk factor for PICM. RV pacing, which causes CLBBB-like QRS morphology, may need to be avoided, and patients with CLBBB-like paced QRS should be followed-up carefully. (Source: Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology)
