Experts note that implantable loop recorders are valuable for detecting infrequent arrhythmias and guiding anticoagulation decisions post-cryptogenic stroke or atrial fibrillation ablation, but due to ...

Doctors at Columbus Community Hospital now have a high-tech new tool that can help them diagnose irregular heart rhythms that may not show up during standard testing. The tool, called a cardiac loop ...

Medtronic‘s study of Linq implantable cardiac monitor (ICM) devices in atrial fibrillation (AFib) patients offers important lessons for other device developers, says the cardiac electrophysiologist ...

LONDON, England—New research has identified several high-risk variables associated with the need for a new permanent pacemaker after TAVI for aortic stenosis. None on the list are among the more ...

We aimed to quantify the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with cryptogenic stroke globally, as well as separately in patients in and outside of Japan, using an implantable loop ...

In the RACE V prospective cohort study, over half of the 98 coronary artery bypass grafting patients studied had at least one POAF episode detected during 2.5 years of monitoring for atrial ...

Remote Monitoring (RM) has been shown to provide useful information about arrhythmic events in patients with implantable loop recorders (ILRs), however there is few and conflicting data about the ...

Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked deficiency of alpha-galactosidase-A, leading to lysosomal storage of sphingolipids in multiple organs. Myocardial accumulation contributes to arrhythmia and sudden ...
