Please join HRS Digital Education Committee Vice-Chair, Tina Baykaner, MD, MPH, of Stanford University, as she is joined by Heart Rhythm Society President Mina K. Chung, MD, FHRS, of the Cleveland Clinic, and Konstantinos C. Siontis, MD, FHRS of the May Clinic. The three met up in Altanta at HRX 2025 for this stimulating coversation. This study evaluated whether artificial intelligence applied to single-lead ambulatory ECGs could predict imminent sustained ventricular arrhythmias. Using deep learning models, the researchers demonstrated that AI could identify subtle ECG features preceding arrhythmic events, enabling accurate short-term risk prediction. The findings suggest a potential role for AI-enhanced ECG monitoring to improve early detection and prevention of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias.

CardioNerds guest host Dr. Colin Blumenthal joins Dr. Juma Bin Firos and Dr. Aishwarya Verma from the Trinity Health Livonia Hospital to discuss a fascinating case involving malignant ventricular arrhythmias. Expert commentary is provided by Dr. Mohammed Ali-Jazayeri. Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds Intern, Julia Marques Fernandes.  This case explores the puzzling presentation of exercise-induced ventricular tachycardia in a young, otherwise healthy male who suffered recurrent out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. With no traditional risk factors and an unremarkable ischemic workup, the challenge lay in uncovering the underlying cause of his malignant arrhythmias. Electrophysiology studies and advanced imaging played a pivotal role in systematically narrowing the differentials, revealing an unexpected arrhythmogenic substrate. This episode delves into the diagnostic dilemma, the role of EP testing, and the critical decision-making surrounding ICD placement in a patient with a concealed but life-threatening condition.  US Cardiology Review is now the official journal of CardioNerds!

Pearls- Malignant Ventricular Arrhythmias This case highlights the challenges and importance of diagnosing and managing ventricular arrhythmias in young, seemingly healthy individuals. Here are five key takeaways from the episode:  Electrophysiology (EP) studies play a crucial role in identifying arrhythmogenic substrates in patients with exercise-induced ventricular tachycardia (VT) without obvious structural heart disease. In this case, substrate mapping revealed late abnormal ventricular afterdepolarizations in the basal inferior left ventricle, providing valuable insights into the underlying mechanism.  Cardiac MRI can be a powerful tool for detecting subtle myocardial abnormalities. The subepicardial late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) in the lateral and inferior LV walls suggested an underlying myocardial process, even when other imaging modalities appeared normal.  The VT morphology can provide clues about the underlying mechanism. In this case, the right bundle branch block pattern with a northwest axis and shifting exit sites pointed towards a scar-mediated mechanism rather than a channelopathy or idiopathic VT.  Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) placement is crucial for secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with malignant ventricular arrhythmias, even in young individuals. The patient's initial deferral of ICD implantation highlights the importance of shared decision-making and patient education in these complex cases.  "Scar-mediated VT introduces the risk of new arrhythmogenic substrates over time, reinforcing the need for ICD therapy even when catheter ablation is considered." This pearl emphasizes the dynamic nature of the arrhythmogenic substrate and the importance of long-term risk mitigation strategies.  Notes - Malignant Ventricular Arrhythmias Notes were drafted by Juma Bin Firos.  1. What underlying pathologies cause ventricular arrhythmias in young patients without overt structural heart disease? Myocardial fibrosis: Detected via late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiac MRI Present in 38% of nonischemic cardiomyopathy cases Increases sudden cardiac death (SCD) risk 5-fold Often localized to subepicardial regions, particularly in the inferolateral left ventricle (LV) May precede overt systolic dysfunction by years Subclinical cardiomyopathy: 67% of young VT patients show subtle cardiac dysfunction Suggests VT may be the first manifestation of cardiomyopathy

Contributor: Ricky Dhaliwal, MD Educational Pearls: What factors are considered in a COVID-19 infection? The viral load: Understood as the impact of SARS-CoV-2 viral particles infecting host cell tissue itself (utilizing ACE-2 receptors). Pro-Inflammatory Response: Post-infection, the body's downstream systemic cytokine release (can be both normal or hyperactive, aka “cytokine storm”). What cardiac impacts have been observed with COVID-19? Arrhythmias: The mechanism of COVID-19 infection and arrhythmias is believed to be multifactorial. However, evidence suggests T-cell-mediated toxicity and cytokine storm may contribute to cardiac myocyte damage, precipitating proarrhythmias instead of direct viral entry. Bradycardia: Increased prevalence in patients with severe COVID-19 infection, but not associated with increased adverse outcomes. Atrial Fibrillation: Most common cardiac complication and risk factor for worsened outcomes in patients with COVID-19. Biggest associated risk is strokes, and may require heightened monitoring and anticoagulation therapy to mitigate stroke risk. Fibrosis of Cardiac Tissue: Similar to arrhythmias, believed to be inflammation-mediated in COVID-19. Fibrosis of cardiac tissue increases the risk that any arrhythmias that develop during infection may persist after the infection has resolved. Ventricular damage: Also inflammation mediated by an active infection and contributes to myocarditis. No evidence suggests that COVID-19 vaccination contributes to myocarditis.  Sinus node dysfunction induced by inflammation that may lead to or be similar to Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS).  Big takeaway? Patients who have had or currently have COVID-19 are at an increased risk of developing arrhythmias and sustaining them post-infection. However, a majority of patients will recover. Due to atrial fibrillation being the most prevalent arrhythmia associated with COVID-19 infection, increased monitoring and potential anticoagulation therapy are required.  References Gopinathannair R, Olshansky B, Chung MK, Gordon S, Joglar JA, Marcus GM, et al.

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: Quick background info Cardiac arrest is when the heart stops pumping blood for any reason. This is different from a heart attack in which the heart is still working but the muscle itself is starting to die. One cause of cardiac arrest is when the electrical signals are very disrupted in the heart and start following chaotic patterns such as Ventricular tachycardia (VTach) and Ventricular fibrillation (VFib) One of the only ways to save a person whose heart is in VFib or VTach is to jolt the heart with electricity and terminate the dangerous arrhythmia. A recent study in the Netherlands looked at how important the time delay is from when cardiac arrest is first identified to when a defibrillation shock from an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is actually given. Their main take-away: each minute defibrillation is delayed drops the survival rate by 6%! These findings reinforce the importance of rapid AED deployment and early defibrillation strategies in prehospital cardiac arrest response. References Stieglis, R., Verkaik, B. J., Tan, H.

In this episode, Deputy Editor Dr. Zamaneh Kassiri (University of Alberta) interviews authors Dr. Oliver H. Wearing (University of British Columbia), Dr. Naomi C. Chesler (University of California Irvine), Dr. Mitchel J. Colebank (University of South Carolina), Dr. Timothy A. Hacker (University of Wisconsin-Madison), Dr. John N. Lorenz (University of Cincinnati), and Dr. Christopher R. West (University of British Columbia) about their new Guidelines in Cardiovascular Research article. This must-read Guidelines article provides a thorough overview of ventricular pressure-volume (PV) measurements in the mouse heart. PV measurements are an invasive method for assessment of heart function, and if done correctly, can provide researchers with valuable information about heart hemodynamics and the relationship between changes in ventricular pressure and volume during a cardiac cycle. The authors discuss PV measurements as the gold standard for assessing cardiac in vivo function. How do PV measurements differ from, and provide a complement to, echocardiography measurements?

Our guest today is Evelyn Gamble.  Evelyn is a dedicated healthcare worker and passionate heart disease advocate. With a deep commitment to improving health outcomes, Evelyn uses her personal and professional experiences to raise awareness about heart health, particularly for young adults. As a strong voice for change, she aims to inspire others to take proactive steps in managing their heart health and to advocate for better care and resources for those affected by heart disease.     Definition: A heart arrhythmia, also known as a cardiac arrhythmia, is an abnormal rhythm of the heart. It occurs when the electrical impulses that control the heart's contractions do not function properly.    Causes:    Heart arrhythmias can be caused by a wide range of factors, including:    Heart disease (e.g., coronary artery disease, heart failure) Electrolyte imbalances (e.g., low potassium or magnesium) Certain medications (e.g., stimulants, caffeine) Thyroid disorders Damage to the Vagus Nerve Stress Genetics    Types:    There are many different types of heart arrhythmias, which can be classified based on the rate and rhythm of the heart:    Tachycardia: A rapid heart rate (over 100 beats per minute)    Bradycardia: A slow heart rate (under 60 beats per minute)    Atrial fibrillation: A quivering or irregular rhythm of the upper chambers of the heart (atria)    Ventricular fibrillation: A life-threatening rhythm where the lower chambers of the heart (ventricles) contract irregularly and chaotically    Premature beats: Extra heartbeats that occur early in the rhythm    Symptoms:    Some people with heart arrhythmias may not experience any symptoms. Others may have symptoms such as:    Palpitations (feeling like the heart is racing or fluttering), Chest pain or discomfort, Dizziness or lightheadedness, Fainting, and Shortness of breath.    Diagnosis and Treatment:    To diagnose a heart arrhythmia, your doctor will likely perform a physical exam, ask about your medical history, and take an electrocardiogram (ECG). Treatment options depend on the type and severity of the arrhythmia and may include:    Medications (e.g., beta-blockers, antiarrhythmics) Lifestyle changes (e.g., exercise, stress management) Surgery (e.g., ablation procedure) Implantable devices (e.g., pacemakers, defibrillators)    Outlook: The outlook for people with heart arrhythmias varies depending on the underlying cause and severity of the condition.

EVOLVED: Early Intervention in Patients with Asymptomatic Severe Aortic Stenosis and Left Ventricular Myocardial Fibrosis

In today's VETgirl online veterinary continuing education podcast, Dr. Amy Kaplan, CVMA, DACVECC, MRCVS discusses the important question, does rapamycin halt progression of left ventricular hypertrophy in feline HCM? Listen to find out!

Modeling Disease Pathways Through Ventricular Depolarization   Guest: Peter van Dam, PhD  Host: Anthony H. Kashou, MD   Detection of disease progression is hampered due to the large variation in normal QRS morphologies, even for the ECG expert. Cardiac modeling techniques can improve the interpretation and diagnostic value of the ECG by visualizing relevant QRS deviations. Comparing the QRS waveforms and electrical pathway in genetical patients to normal controls shows that even small changes in the QRS can be detected in patients with a genetical disease, like Brugada or ACM.    Topics Discussed: What is the PathECG?  How do you compare PathECG to normal ECG waveform?  What can the PathECG add to the ECG? Could PathECG improve the quality of the ECG diagnosis?

Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is the most important shockable cardiac arrest rhythm. Still, it's fatal unless good quality, high performance CPR is administered as soon as possible. Lets dive in and really get to understand this rhythm. A special thanks to American Ambulance Paramedic Megan Resendez for sharing a case from the field to get the conversation going.
