Validity and reliability of a new, short symptom rating scale in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (2009)

Härdén, Marie, Nyström, Britta, Kulich, Károly, Carlsson, Jonas, Bengtson, Ann, Edvardsson, Nils

Abstract Background Symptoms related to atrial fibrillation and their impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) are often evaluated in clinical trials. However, there remains a need for a...

Interference of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation with permanent ventricular stimulation: a new clinical problem? (2009)

Carlson, Tobias, Andréll, Paulin, Ekre, Olof, Edvardsson, Nils, Holmgren, Christina, Jacobsson, Filip, ...

Aims To assess the compatibility of thoracic TENS and permanent PM treatment and to identify any signs of interference of TENS with the PM function. Methods and results Twenty-seven patients treated...

Rapid effects of air pollution on ventricular arrhythmias (2008)

Ljungman, Petter L.S., Berglind, Niklas, Holmgren, Christina, Gadler, Fredrik, Edvardsson, Nils, Pershagen, Göran, ...

Aims Air pollution has been associated with ventricular arrhythmias in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) for exposure periods of 24–48 h. Only two studies have...

Short-term sinus rhythm predicts long-term sinus rhythm and clinical improvement after intraoperative ablation of atrial fibrillation (2008)

Johansson, Birgitta, Houltz, Birgitta, Berglin, Eva, Brandrup-Wognsen, Gunnar, Karlsson, Thomas, Edvardsson, Nils

Aims Our aim was to compare the long-term effects on rhythm and quality of life (QoL) after left atrial epicardial radiofrequency (RF) ablation vs. no ablation in patients undergoing cardiac surgery....

Less syncope and milder symptoms in patients treated with pacing for induced cardioinhibitory carotid sinus syndrome: a randomized study (2007)

Claesson, Jan-Eric, Kristensson, Bo-Erik, Edvardsson, Nils, Währborg, Peter

Aims The aim of this study was to examine the effect on symptoms in patients with induced cardioinhibitory carotid sinus syndrome (ICSS) when treated or not treated with a pacemaker. Methods and...

ST segment elevation and chest pain during cryoablation of atrial flutter (2007)

Johansson, Birgitta I., Hrafnkelsdóttir, Thórdís J., Edvardsson, Nils

A 61-year-old male was treated with cryoablation for typical atrial flutter. Cryoablation was performed percutaneously with an 8-mm tip catheter to achieve a bidirectional conduction block of the...

A randomized double-blind study of epicardial left atrial cryoablation for permanent atrial fibrillation in patients undergoing mitral valve surgery: the SWEDish Multicentre Atrial Fibrillation study (SWEDMAF) (2007)

Blomström-Lundqvist, Carina, Johansson, Birgitta, Berglin, Eva, Nilsson, Leif, Jensen, Steen M., Thelin, Stefan, ...

Aims The efficacy of epicardial left atrial (LA) cryoablation in eliminating atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients undergoing mitral valve surgery (MVS) is unknown. We hypothesized that MVS combined...

Parametric Time-Domain Measures of Long-Term Heart Rate Variability Signal (2003)

Saliu, Sokol, Poci, Dritan, Edvardsson, Nils

Based on alpha-stable distributional modelling, we have proposed a set of parametric measures to analyze long-term heart rate variability(HRV). The set, in difference from standard measures,...

Dronedarone for prevention of atrial fibrillation: A dose-ranging study (2003)

Touboul, Paul, Brugada, Josep, Capucci, Alessandro, Edvardsson, Nils, Hohnloser, Stefan H.

Aims Dronedarone, a benzofurane derivative without iodine substituents, shares the electrophysiologic properties of amiodarone. This study was designed to determine the most appropriate dose of...

Prediction of terminal atrial myocardial repolarisation from incomplete phase 3 data (1989)

OLSSON, S BERTIL, CAI, NAISHENG, EDVARDSSON, NILS, TALWAR, KEWAL K

The duration of the monophasic action potential (MAP) carries prognostic antiarrhythmic information when the recording is done during sinus rhythm (SR) after DC conversion of atrial fibrillation...

Acute effects of lignocaine, procainamide, metoprolol, digoxin and atropine on human myocardial refractoriness (1984)

EDVARDSSON, NILS, HIRSCH, ISAAC, OLSSON, S BERTIL

The acute intravenous effects of therapeutic doses of procainamide, lignocaine, metoprolol, digoxin and atropine on the monophasic action potentials (MAP) and effective refractory periods of the...
