Researchers have found in an exploratory study that lower plasma potassium (p-potassium) levels were associated with an ...

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 ...

Background: A relaxation of the prohibition of scanning cardiac rhythm device patients is underway, largely because of the growing experience of safe scanning events at 1.5T. Magnetic resonance ...

Background: Recent data suggest that the true incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) after patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure has probably been underestimated, and may differ according to the type of ...

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 ...
