Review, Journal: Effect of Obesity on the Use of Antiarrhythmics in Adults With Atrial Fibrillation: A Narrative Review. (Pubmed Central) - Aug 22, 2024 This observation is based on heterogeneous studies of participants with an average BMI and poorly controlled confounding factors such as multimorbidity, concomitant medications, varying routes of administration, and assessment of obesity. Controlled trials with stratification at the time of recruitment for obesity are necessary to determine the significance of these findings.

Clinical, Retrospective data, Review, Journal: External electrical and pharmacological cardioversion for atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter or atrial tachycardias: a network meta-analysis. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 3, 2024 Despite the low quality of evidence, this systematic review provides important information on electrical and pharmacological strategies to help patients and physicians deal with AF and atrial flutter. In the assessment of the patient comorbidity profile, antiarrhythmic drug onset of action and side effect profile versus the need for a physician with experience in sedation, or anaesthetics support for electrical cardioversion are key aspects when choosing the cardioversion method.

WOLFF-PARKINSON-WHITE SYNDROME AND ATRIAL FIBRILLATION IN AN OTHERWISE HEALTHY YOUNG MALE (Hall B4-5) - Jan 26, 2024 - Abstract #ACC2024ACC_300; Prompt recognition of the WPW and AF via ECG is important in the proper treatment of this arrhythmia (usually with class IA, IC, or III antiarrhythmics) to prevent degeneration to VF. We share this case to raise awareness of the detrimental effects of misdiagnosis and mistreatment of a rare yet serious condition.

Journal: Response to ibutilide and the long-term outcome after catheter ablation for non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. (Pubmed Central) - Aug 6, 2022 These haemodynamic side effects may constitute a second component of their arrhythmic profile, acting as a trigger alongside their intrinsic arrhythmogenic electrophysiological properties. In patients whose atrial fibrillation persisted after pulmonary vein isolation, the response to ibutilide administration could predict the recurrence of atrial arrhythmias after catheter ablation, which may be useful for risk stratification for recurrence of atrial fibrillation and individualised management of atrial fibrillation.
