Objective Despite the improved procedural outcomes with advences in ablation techniques, postablation atrial fibrillation recurrence has continued to be a major clinical problem after pulmonary vein isolation, occuring in 25%…
Aim The aim of the current meta-analysis was to compare the efficacy between radiofrequency and cryoballoon ablations by analyzing published randomized clinical studies. Methods Published studies were extracted from the…
Objectives Previous studies have shown that left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) contribute to atrial fibrillation (AF) pathogenesis. However, data on the impact of LVDD on AF recurrence after cryoballoon-based pulmonary…
Objectives Association between focal pulmonary vein (PV) potentials and atrial fibrillation (AF) has made circumferential PV isolation (PVI) using cryoballoon system the cornerstone of AF treatment. AF recurrence is mostly…
Background/Aim Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) is a method that has been applied in severe aortic stenosis (AS) treatment increasingly. Development of Contrast Induced Nephropathy (CIN) after TAVI increases the…
Objective To work out a prognostic model of 5-year survival in patients with severe aortic stenosis, complicated with atrioventricular valves insufficiency. Methods A prospective non-randomized study was conducted considering all…
Background Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has been recognized as a primary strategy in treatment of severe aortic stenosis (AS) in high-risk patients. Recently along with the progress of technology some…
Aim In patients with pulmonary dysfunction, it is unclear wheather transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is well tolerated or even beneficial. We investigated wheather transfemoral access valve implantation leads to…
Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the value of QT interval, QT dispertion, and echocardiographic parameters in patients after transarterial valve implantation (TAVI). A retrospective analysis of…
Aims The aim of this study is to evaluate heart rate variability (HRV) and echocardiographic parameters before and after Transarterial Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) in patients with severe aortic stenosis…
