Artificial intelligence for ventricular arrhythmia capability using ambulatory electrocardiograms Open
Aims European and American clinical guidelines for implantable cardioverter defibrillators are insufficiently accurate for ventricular arrhythmia (VA) risk stratification, leading to significant morbidity and mortality. Artificial intellig…

Artificial intelligence for ventricular arrhythmia capability using ambulatory electrocardiograms Open
Lay Abstract Question Can artificial intelligence (AI) be used to predict if a person is at risk of a lethal heart rhythm, based solely on an electrocardiogram (an electrical heart tracing)? Findings In a study of 270 adults (of which 159 …

Machine learning in sudden cardiac death risk prediction: a systematic review Open
Aims Most patients who receive implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) for primary prevention do not receive therapy during the lifespan of the ICD, whilst up to 50% of sudden cardiac death (SCD) occur in individuals who are conside…

Effects of Exercise on Nutritional Status in People with Cystic Fibrosis: A Systematic Review Open
Background: Physical exercise is an important part of regular care for people with cystic fibrosis (CF). It is unknown whether such exercise has beneficial or detrimental effects on nutritional status (body composition). Thus, the objectiv…

Standard care vs. TRIVEntricular pacing in Heart Failure (STRIVE HF): a prospective multicentre randomized controlled trial of triventricular pacing vs. conventional biventricular pacing in patients with heart failure and intermediate QRS left bundle branch block Open
Aims To determine whether triventricular (TriV) pacing is feasible and improves CRT response compared to conventional biventricular (BiV) pacing in patients with left bundle branch block (LBBB) and intermediate QRS prolongation (120–150 ms…

Application of two novel electrical restitution based ECG markers of ventricular arrhythmia to patients with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy Open
Introduction: Sudden Cardiac Death (SCD) risk assessment is limited, particularly in patients with non-ischemic cardiomyopathies. This is the first application, in patients with non-ischemic cardiomyopathies, of two novel risk markers, Reg…

Recurrent valve obstruction in a patient with a pure carbon bileaflet metallic mitral valve: a case report Open
Subtherapeutic anticoagulation and the rapid development of dyspnoea, should prompt the clinician to suspect PVT. Thorough clinical examination and immediate bedside echocardiography are critical for assessing prosthetic valve patients in …

LifeMap: towards the development of a new technology in sudden cardiac death risk stratification for clinical use Open
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a major cause of mortality presenting a significant unmet clinical need. Patients at risk of SCD are implanted with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) according to international guidelines based on…

P233 A pilot diagnostic cardio-respiratory breathlessness clinic: can a symptom-based approach achieve an earlier diagnosis? Open
Introduction We aimed to compare the time to diagnosis and treatment between a combined cardio-respiratory diagnostic breathlessness clinic (BC) and usual specialist outpatient care (UC) in patients with chronic breathlessness referred fro…
