2017 ISHNE ‐HRS expert consensus statement on ambulatory ECG and external cardiac monitoring/telemetry
Abstract Ambulatory ECG (AECG) is very commonly employed in a variety of clinical contexts to detect cardiac arrhythmias and/or arrhythmia patterns which are not readily obtained from the standard ECG. Accurate and timely characterization of arrhythmias is crucial to direct therapies that can have an important impact on diagnosis, prognosis or patient symptom status. The rhythm information derived from the large variety of AECG recording systems can often lead to appropriate and patient‐specific medical and interventional management. The details in this document provide background and framework from which to apply AECG t...

Congenital Long QT syndrome and torsade de pointes
Since its initial description by Jervell and Lange‐Nielsen in 1957, the congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) has been the most investigated cardiac ion channelopathy. A prolonged QT interval in the surface electrocardiogram is the sine qua non of the LQTS and is a surrogate measure of the ventricular action potential duration (APD). Congenital as well as acquired alterations in certain cardiac ion channels can affect their currents in such a way as to increase the APD and hence the QT interval. The inhomogeneous lengthening of the APD across the ventricular wall results in dispersion of APD. This together with the tendency...

A rare form of extremely wide QRS complex due to reversed homologous electrical ventricular separation of acute heart failure
We report a valve heart disease presented with complicated electrophysiological characteristics, which has reversed complex homologous electrical ventricular separation with second degree intraventricular block. (Source: Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology)

Ranolazine reduces repolarization heterogeneity in  symptomatic patients with diabetes and non–flow‐limiting coronary artery stenosis
ConclusionsIn symptomatic diabetic patients with non‐flow‐limiting coronary artery stenosis with diffuse atherosclerosis and/or microvascular dysfunction, ranolazine reduced TWH at rest but not during exercise. Reduction in repolarization abnormalities appears to be independent of alterations in MBF. (Source: Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology)

Brugada syndrome, Brugada phenocopy or none?
We present a case of a suicidal attempt using a high dose of propafenone causing a Brugada‐type electrocardiographic pattern. Is this a Brugada syndrome case, a Brugada phenocopy or something else? (Source: Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology)

New insights into the clinical signs of supraventricular tachycardia: The “sign of lace‐tying”
ConclusionsOverall, our study has highlighted the importance of considering clinical signs and patient characteristics both before and during SVT for the precise diagnosis of paroxysmal SVT. Furthermore, 32% of patients presented the “sign of lace‐tying” or body position change before SVT, implying a diagnosis of SVT. (Source: Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology)

Repetitive ventricular tachycardia in a syncopal child: Cause or incidental finding ?
A 15‐year‐old girl suffered recurrent syncopal episodes during 7 years. Events were precipitated by exercise or emotional stress, leading to the diagnosis of reflex syncope. Exercise testing induced recurrent salvos of nonsustained right ventricular outflow tract tachycardia. This arrhythmia is often asymptomatic, reflex syncope is very frequent and both causes are related to the same triggering situations. It was therefore essential to obtain recordings during syncopal events and to observe the clinical evolution under effective treatment in order to make the right diagnosis.

Rationale and design of a randomized trial to assess the safety and efficacy of MultiPoint Pacing (MPP) in cardiac resynchronization therapy: The MPP Trial
ConclusionThis trial seeks to evaluate whether MPP via a single quadripolar LV lead improves hemodynamic and clinical responses to CRT, both in clinical responders and nonresponders. (Source: Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology)

Categorization and theoretical comparison of quantitative methods for assessing QT/RR hysteresis
ConclusionModel‐based approaches to QT‐hys assessment appear to be the most versatile, as they allow separate quantification of QT/RR dependency and QT‐hys, and can be applied to a wide range of experimental settings. (Source: Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology)

Conventional and right ‐sided screening for subcutaneous ICD in a population with congenital heart disease at high risk of sudden cardiac death
ConclusionIn high‐risk patients with ToF, right‐sided implantation of the sICD could be an alternative to a conventional ICD. In patients with a systemic right ventricle, implantation of a sICD is an alternative to a conventional sICD. (Source: Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology)
