Rapid pacing of atrial fibrillation (AF) can induce local capture of the atrial tissue. Heterogeneities in atrial substrate are considered to play in the perpetuation of AF by promoting AF reentries. The present model-based study investigated the influence ...
We present a model-based study of therapeutical approaches to atrial fibrillation with a focus on pacing. After a systematic evaluation of different atrial pacing sites, we selected pacing from the septum area and designed a novel septum pacing protocol fo ...
Stepwise catheter ablation (step-CA) can terminate long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (LS-pAF) within the left atrium (LA) or may require additional right atrial (RA) ablation. Intracardiac organization indices such as AF cycle length (AFCL) have ...
Introduction: Rapid pacing of atrial fibrillation (AF) can induce local capture of the atrial tissue and preliminary studies showed that the septum area was the only location allowing capture of both atria from a single site. The present model-based study ...
Sustained atrial fibrillation (AF) is maintained by sites displaying high dominant frequency (DF). In patients (pts) with long-standing persistent AF (LS-pAF), their spatial distribution and the presence of a left-to-right atrial DF gradient remain poorly ...
Rapid pacing of atrial fibrillation (AF) can induce local capture of the atrial tissue and preliminary studies showed that the septum area was the only location allowing simultaneous capture of both atria from a single site. The present model-based study i ...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most important trigger for heart failure and stroke. Reliable methods for predicting AF are lacking and ECG analysis could improve this process. P-wave characteristics in the ECG are an important source of information in the ...
The outcome of stepwise catheter ablation (step-CA) for patients (pts) with long-standing atrial fibrillation (LS-pAF) is poorly predicted by classical organization indices (OI). Our study aims at developing new indices from pre-ablation ECG in order to id ...
Several organization indices have been used to predict the outcome of stepwise catheter ablation (step-CA) in long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (LS-pAF), however with limited success. Our study aims at developing innovative indices from baseline ...
Amplitude and frequency are the two primary features of one-dimensional signals, and thus both are widely utilized to analysis data in numerous fields. While amplitude can be examined directly, frequency requires more elaborate approaches, except in the si ...
