Aims: To assess the relation between atrial fibrillation (AF) characteristics and health-related quality of life (QoL), and which AF characteristic had the greatest impact. Method: The AF characteristics burden (percentage of time in AF), duration an

A short P-wave duration is associated with incident heart failure in the elderly: a 15 years follow-up cohort study

Autor: Bozena, Ostrowska, Lars, Lind, Elena, Sciaraffia, Carina, Blomström-Lundqvist

Publikováno v: J Geriatr Cardiol

BACKGROUND: Early identification of patients at risk of congestive heart failure (HF) may alter their poor prognosis. The aim was therefore to test whether simple electrocardiographic variables, the P-wave and PR-interval, could predict incident HF.

Publikováno v: Pacing and clinical electrophysiology : PACEREFERENCES. 44(8)

BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of ARVC remains complex requiring both imaging and electrocardiographic (ECG) techniques. The purpose was therefore to investigate whether QRS dispersion assessed by body surface mapping (BSM) could be used to detect early s
