Predictors of low voltage areas in persistent atrial fibrillation: is it really a matter of time?
Time has been postulated as an important factor for electrical remodeling of the left atrium (LA) in persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) (‘AF begets AF’). However, it is still a matter of debate if structural ...

Impact of baseline atrial fibrillation cycle length on acute and long-term outcome of persistent atrial fibrillation ablation
A short baseline atrial fibrillation (AF) cycle length (CL) has been associated with a worse outcome after catheter ablation for AF, whereas the impact of a long baseline AFCL is unknown. We investigated the i...

Forces on cardiac implantable electronic devices during remote magnetic navigation
Remote magnetic navigation systems are used for catheter navigation in cardiac electrophysiological ablation procedures. In this setting, ferromagnetic particles will be moved by changes in the magnetic field....
