Clinical research that uses artificial intelligence (AI) and big data may aid the prediction and/or detection of subclinical cardiovascular diseases by providing additional knowledge about disease onset, progression or outcome. Clinical decision-making, disease diagnostics, risk prediction or individualised therapy may be informed by insights obtained from AI algorithms. As health records have…

Our society acquires and stores data at unprecedented rates. Making sense of it has become a subject of academic interest,1,2 it is widely discussed and has provided a focus of interest to professional advisors,3 in each case with the objective of considering practical applications. Sophisticated interpretation of these data can provide powerful insights. Just recently, in the field of public…

Artificial intelligence (AI) has recently become a popular term in the technological world. AI refers to the simulation of human intelligence with the capacity for achieving goals within computers. Machine learning (ML) – a subtype of AI – refers to a statistical model that is able to independently learn to make inferences on new data based on data it has previously analysed. ML has markedly…

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia affecting 1.5–2 % of the general population.1 In the current clinical guidelines, catheter ablation is recommended in addition to drug-based antiarrhythmic therapy for patients suffering from symptomatic, drugrefractory AF. However, catheter ablation, if performed at an experienced centre, may also serve as first-line therapy in…

The role of percutaneous catheter ablation for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias has become paramount over the last 30 years. Although there has been a dramatic increase in the number of different ablation energies and technologies (such as cryoablation,1,2 laser balloon3,4 and high-intensity focused ultrasound,5,6 multi-electrode ablation catheters,7,8 robotic navigation,9,10 and focal…

Brugada syndrome (BS) is an inherited disease characterised by coved-type ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads (V1–V3) and an increased risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in the absence of structural heart disease.1
It typically affects otherwise healthy individuals in their forties.2 SCD is the most dramatic presentation, but many patients are asymptomatic at the time of diagnosis…

Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has become an accepted therapeutic strategy for AF.1 The cryoballoon (CB) ablation system has been introduced into clinical practice as a tool for a single-shot anatomical based-PVI, and a comparable efficacy of the CB ablation to radiofrequency (RF) ablation has been demonstrated in a prospective randomised study.2–4
The recently introduced second-generation CB …
