It is common practice to restore and maintain sinus rhythm in patients with atrial fibrillation and heart failure. This approach is based in part on data indicating that atrial fibrillation is a ...

AMSTERDAM, the Netherlands—In patients with sinus node dysfunction treated with dual-chamber pacemakers, minimizing atrial pacing doesn’t lower the likelihood of developing atrial fibrillation (AF) ...

PHILADELPHIA — Accelerometer-based atrial sensing with a novel, enhanced, automated algorithm in patients with atrioventricular block and a single-chamber leadless pacemaker in the right ventricle ...

Here, we describe a large four-generation family with an autosomal dominant condition, comprising various types of CHD and low atrial rhythm, a unique phenotype not described before within a family. A ...
