Device-detected atrial fibrillation in a large remote-monitored cohort: implications for anticoagulation and need for new pathways of service delivery
ConclusionsDespite being intensively managed via RM software system incorporating cues for anticoagulation, a substantial proportion of patients with increased stroke risk remained unanticoagulated after a device-detected AF episode of significant duration. These data highlight the need for improved clinical response pathways and an integrated care approach to RM.Trial registrationAustralian New Zealand Clinical Trial Registry: ACTRN12620001232921.Graphical Abstract

Subclinical atrial fibrillation frequency and associated parameters in patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy
ConclusionPatients with CRT have significantly higher frequency of SCAF than the normal population. CHA2DS2-VASc score, LA diameter, and atrial threshold values were considered to be useful and easily applicable parameters in identifying the patients to develop SCAF.

Long-term outcome of catheter ablation and other form of therapy for electrical storm in patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators
ConclusionsIn patients treated with RFCA for ES, all-cause mortality was significantly lower compared to the group treated with other methods.
