  1. 1. Outcomes and safety of new techniques for pulmonary vein isolation in patients with paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation : A study based on randomised trials and registries

    Författare :David Mörtsell; Carina Blomström-Lundqvist; Stefan Lönnerholm; Isabel Deisenhofer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; atrial fibrillation; antiarrhythmic drugs; ablation; cryoballoon; radiofrequency; pulmonary vein isolation; quality of life; arrhythmia monitoring; implantable cardiac monitor; atrial fibrillation burden; health economics; Cardiology; Kardiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common disease with a high prevalence in the adult population. Treatment of AF encompasses antiarrhythmic drugs and catheter ablation to reduce symptoms. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Continuous ambulatory hemodynamic monitoring with an implantable system : the feasibility of a new technique

    Författare :Åke Ohlsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :heartfailure; hemodynamic monitoring; implantable; oxygen saturation; pressure; ambulatory; right ventricle; dPdt; long-term; sensor; cardiac output.;

    Sammanfattning : Patients with chronic heart failure constitute an increasingly large group. Despite recent therapeutic improvements, these patients have a poor prognosis. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Implantable devices in heart failure : studies on biventricular pacing and continuous hemodynamic monitoring

    Författare :Frieder Braunschweig; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Implantable devices; congestive heart failure; biventricular pacing; hemodynamic monitoring; ambulatory; hospitalizations; positron emission tomography; stress; blood flow; loop diuretics; natriuretic peptides; hemodynamics.;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic heart failure is a highly symptomatic syndrome associated with increasing prevalence, frequent hospital admissions and high treatment costs. Despite recent advances in drug therapy, morbidity and mortality are still high. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Hemodynamic aspects of biventricular pacing in heart failure

    Författare :Marcus Ståhlberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Heart failure; biventricular pacing; hemodynamic monitoring; heart rate; cardiac output;

    Sammanfattning : Background and aims: Biventricular pacing or cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an established treatment option for selected heart failure (HF) patients. We aimed at evaluating acute and longer-term hemodynamic effects of different pacemaker programmings in CRT patients. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The usefulness of continuous hemodynamic monitoring to guide therapy in patients with cardiopulmonary disease

    Författare :Barbro Kjellström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Cardiovascular disease, whether secondary to myocardial injury, pulmonary hypertension or renal failure, have high morbidity and mortality. New treatments have improved quality of life and survival, but hospitalization rates remain high. LÄS MER
