Characteristics and Outcomes of Atrial Fibrillation in Chronic Heart Failure PatientsHeart failure and atrial fibrillation represent conditions that commonly coexist. The impact of AF in HF has yet to be well studied in Latin America. This study aimed to characterize the sociodemographic and clinical features, along with patients’ outcomes with AF and HF from the Colombian Heart Failure Registry.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea as a Predictor of Inducible Atrial Flutter During Pulmonary Vein Isolation in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation: Clinical Significance and Follow-Up OutcomesAtrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFL) often coexist in patients and may lead to severe symptoms and complications. Despite their coexistence, prophylactic cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) ablation has failed to reduce the incidence of recurrent AF or new onset AFL.

Assessing Correlation Between Thoracic Impedance and Remotely Monitored Pulmonary Artery Pressure in Chronic Systolic Heart FailureHeart failure (HF) readmission continues to be a major health problem. Monitoring pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and thoracic impedance (TI) are the two modalities utilized for early identification of decompensation in HF patients.
