Five-year-outcome of new-onset perioperative atrial fibrillation after left atrial appendage amputation concomitant with cardiac surgery
ConclusionPOAF is associated with a higher rate of the combined endpoint of all-cause mortality, stroke and rehospitalization. The composite endpoint in patients with LAA-amputation concomitant with OPCAB surgery developing new-onset POAF in a 5-year follow-up was not increased compared to a control cohort maintaining sinus rhythm.Graphical abstractFive-year outcome of patients with POAF and LAA-amputation;95% CI, 95% confidence interval,CPR, cardiopulmonary resuscitation,ECLS, extracorporeal life support,HR, hazard ratio,IABP, intra-aortic balloon pump,LAA, left atrial appendage,OPCAB, off-pump coronary artery bypass graf...

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.

Po-01-141 safety and efficacy of oral anticoagulant in patients undergoing ventricular tachycardia ablation
Periprocedural stroke is a devastating complication of any left-sided electrophysiological procedure. Limited data exist regarding post-Ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation antiplatelet or anticoagulation strategy – often extrapolated from clinical experience with catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation.

Po-01-108 elucidating the mechanism of atrial fibrillation in lamin a/c heart disease using human ipsc-derived atrial cardiomyocytes
Mutations in the LMNA gene, encoding the nuclear envelope proteins lamin A/C, cause cardiac arrhythmias, conduction disease, and dilated cardiomyopathy. Malignant arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation (AF) and ventricular tachycardia are common and pose an increased risk of stroke and sudden cardiac death.

Clinical Efficacy and Safety of Early Intravenous Administration of Beta-Blockers in Patients Suffering from Acute ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Without Heart Failure Undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Study-Level Meta-Analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials
ConclusionIntravenous beta-blockers improved the MSI, decreased the risk of VT/VF in the first 24 h, and were associated with increased LVEF at 1 week and 6 months following PCI. In particular, intravenous beta-blockers started before PCI is beneficial for patients with LAD lesions.

Pregnancy-related cardiovascular conditions and outcomes in a United States Medicaid population
Conclusion This US cohort of Medicaid-funded women have a high incidence of severe cardiovascular conditions during pregnancy. Cardiometabolic conditions of pregnancy conferred threefold higher odds of severe cardiovascular outcomes.

Heartbeat: cardiovascular maternal health and disparities in clinical outcomes
Cardiovascular disease continues to account for a high proportion of pregnancy-related deaths in women in the USA. In addition to pre-existing heart disease, gestational hypertension and diabetes, as well as pre-eclampsia and eclampsia, are associated with an increased risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes both in the short and long-term. In this issue of Heart, Marschner and colleagues1 report an incidence of cardiometabolic conditions (hypertensive disease and diabetes) of 224.3 (95% CI 221.3 to 227.3) per 1000 births among 74 510 women, mean age 26.4 years (SD 5.5) in a cross-sectional study of Medicare patients from ...

Oral milrinone for management of refractory right ventricular failure in patients with left ventricular assist devices
ConclusionsOral milrinone appears safe for long-term use in the outpatient setting when combined with therapeutic monitoring in this complex medical cohort with limited management options. Further study is needed to ascertain whether this treatment is effective in reducing heart failure symptoms and admissions.

Very long ‐term prognosis in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: a longitudinal study with a period of 20 years
ConclusionsIn our cohort of patients, HCM-related mortality was relatively favourable. However, approximately half of the patients suffered from HCM-related adverse events during the follow-up period of 20  years. It is important for HCM patients to be carefully followed up over the long-term because HCM is a lifelong disease.

Percutaneous Transvalvular Microaxial Flow Pump Support in Cardiology
Circulation. 2022 Apr 19;145(16):1254-1284. doi: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.121.058229. Epub 2022 Apr 18.ABSTRACTThe Impella device (Impella, Abiomed, Danvers, MA) is a percutaneous transvalvular microaxial flow pump that is currently used for (1) cardiogenic shock, (2) left ventricular unloading (combination of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and Impella concept), (3) high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions, (4) ablation of ventricular tachycardia, and (5) treatment of right ventricular failure. Impella-assisted forward blood flow increased mean arterial pressure and cardiac output, peripheral tissue pe...
