Experience and insights from a prolonged electrocardiographic monitorization with a wearable system after an embolic stroke of unknown source
ConclusionPCMw represents a feasible non-invasive device that could reliably detect subclinical AF episodes after an ESUS. Diagnostic yield was significatively higher when used within the first 30  days after the event, especially in selected patients. UAE were common, but did not impact prognosis.

Atrial fibrillation catheter ablation associated silent cerebral emboli: A narrative review
AbstractThe incidence of silent cerebral emboli (SCE) associated with atrial fibrillation catheter ablation (AFCA) is much higher than that of stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA). Interventional electrophysiologists have been increasingly alerted to asymptomatic cerebral infarction over the years. Plentiful studies revealed that diagnostic definitions, detection modalities, energy sources, ablation strategies, perioperative anticoagulation regimens, and patient-related factors were associated with the risk of AFCA-associated SCE. Studies related to non-interventional procedures found that SCE may prompt stroke, cognitiv...

Inadvertent misplacement of pacemaker lead presented with acute ischemic stroke
AbstractIf a permanent pacemaker lead is misplaced in the left ventricle (LV), the lead may interfere with normal functioning of the heart leading various complications, including heart rhythm problems and blood clots. In our case, the LV lead that passed through the patent foramen ovale and was misplaced into the LV was detected in a 78-year-old patient who presented with embolic stroke. Thrombus regression was achieved with anticoagulation, and then the lead extraction was planned. The lead extraction is a priority in acute cases; but it is not the primary approach in long-term leads that were misplaced into the LV. A pa...

Detection of atrial fibrillation in real world setting in patients with cryptogenic stroke and an implantable loop recorder
ConclusionCompared to CRYSTAL-AF, the AF detection rate in our cohort is similar, but this cohort includes a higher proportion of female and African American patients. Most patients with recurrent strokes after ILR implant did not have AF during 36 months of monitoring.

Value of ATRIA stroke risk score in predicting atrial high ‐rate episodes: A comparison of six different risk scores
ConclusionAHRE is common in patients with a CIED. In this context, several risk scoring systems have been used to predict the development of AHRE in patients with a CIED. This study's findings revealed that The ATRIA stroke risk scoring system performed better than other commonly used risk scoring systems in predicting AHRE.

Long ‐term success of a multi‐electrode substrate mapping and ablation strategy versus a classic single tip mapping and ablation strategy for ventricular tachycardia ablation in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy
ConclusionsIn patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy, a HD substrate mapping, and ablation strategy did not lead to higher VT-free survival and shock-free survival compared to a single tip mapping and ablation strategy. In this study, only LVF is an independent predictor for VT recurrence. Anterior infarct location and age predict recurrent ICD shocks.

Validation of a handheld single ‐lead ECG algorithm for atrial fibrillation detection after coronary revascularization
ConclusionsThe automatic interpretation algorithm in a handheld thumb ECG device can rule out AF in patients recently undergoing coronary revascularization with high accuracy, but manual confirmation is needed to confirm the diagnose of AF because of high false positive rates.

Association of abnormal p ‐wave parameters with brain mri morphology: the atherosclerosis risk in communities neurocognitive study (ARIC‐NCS)
Conclusion: In this exploratory analysis of a US community-based cohort, ECG surrogates of atrial myopathy are associated with higher prevalence of brain infarcts and microhemorrhage, suggesting subclinical vascular brain injury as a possible mechanism underlying the association of atrial myopathy with dementia.This article is protected by copyright.
