You are reviewing an ECG you arranged for a 56-year-old man with newly diagnosed hypertension. The trace is normal but the computerised report notes ‘first-degree heart block’. Looking at the ...

Sudden death can occur as a consequence of cardiac-conduction abnormalities in the neuromuscular disease myotonic dystrophy type 1. The determinants of the risk of sudden death remain imprecise. We ...

New-onset conduction abnormalities after TAVR are associated with increased risks of all-cause mortality and hospitalization for heart failure, according to a new study. Plenty of research has been ...

The diagnosis is right bundle branch block, left anterior fascicular block, Mobitz type I (Wenckebach) with 2:1 and 3:2 atrioventricular conduction (Figure 2). The rhythm is regular, except for the ...

Researchers at the Yale Cardiovascular Data Science (CarDS) Lab have developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-based model for clinical diagnosis that can use electrocardiogram (ECG) images, ...

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is increasingly used to treat patients with aortic stenosis who are considered to be too high-risk for surgical replacement of the aortic valve. Although ...

Given today's short hospital stays after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), there may be a role for selective long-term monitoring to flag delayed conduction abnormalities, studies showed.

September 5, 2006 (Barcelona) -- A study of patients with severe epilepsy and learning difficulties showed that 60% have abnormalities on electrocardiogram (ECG), raising the question of whether these ...

In an era where hospitals are discharging patients earlier and earlier after transcatheter aortic valve replacement, researchers are warning physicians to be cautious about the development of late ...

Transplacental transfer of anti-Ro antibodies is a well-known cause of conduction defects and permanent atrioventricular block in newborns. 1 In adults, conduction disturbances related to these ...
