Does Therapeutic Hypothermia Cause Stent Thrombosis?
Therapeutic hypothermia (THT) in survivors of cardiac arrest due to shockable rhythm is associated with improved neurological outcomes.Can Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Use be Expanded?
The Evaluation of Resynchronization Therapy for Heart Failure (LESSER-EARTH) trial tested the hypothesis that cardiac resynchronization therapy in addition to optimal medical therapy would benefit patients with severe congestive heart failure but no pacing indication and a QRS duration < 120 milliseconds (msec).Tight vs Loose Rate Control in Permanent Atrial Fibrillation
The Rate Control Efficacy in Permanent Atrial Fibrillation (RACE II) trial compared strict rate control vs lenient rate control in patients with permanent atrial fibrillation. In this substudy, the RACE II investigators report results based on three groups of patients: those with successful strict rate control, those with unsuccessful rate control, and those with lenient rate control.
