Convergent Ablation For The Treatment Of Long Standing Persistent Atrial Fibrillation - A Single Center Experience, Syed Rafay Ali Sabzwari, Lohit Garg Md, Nikhil A. Mehta Md, James R. Kimber, Hiwot Ayele, James K. Wu Md, Babak Bozorgnia Md

Department of Medicine

Introduction: The treatment of long standing persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) is very challenging and conventional catheter ablation strategies have provided only modest success. They often require multiple procedures and anti-arrhythmics to maintain sinus rhythm. The convergent ablation procedure is a hybrid approach, involving a minimally invasive epicardial ablation combined with a traditional transvenous endocardial ablation.

Hypothesis: Convergent ablation is an overall safe and effective procedure for the treatment of long standing persistent AF.

Methods: From February 2015 to September 2017, 30 patient (20 males) with long standing persistent AF underwent convergent ablation at a large tertiary care center. Rest of …

Vancomycin Spacer-Induced Hemolysis., Anuraj Sudhakaran, Aparna Baburaj, Kinjal Banerjee, Rajesh Essrani Md

Department of Medicine

Intravenous vancomycin-induced hemolysis has been documented in the literature. This has been presumed to be due to the development of antibodies against additives that are added along with antibiotics. Herein, we present the case of a 72-year-old male who had hemolysis after the placement of vancomycin spacer, which improved after the spacer was removed.

Hour Prediction Rule - Letter To The Editor., Andrew L. Koons Do, Robert D. Cannon Do, Facmt, Gillian A. Beauchamp Md, Kenneth D. Katz Md, Matthew D. Cook Do, Ryan M. Surmaitis Do

Department of Emergency Medicine

In a recent issue of Academic Emergency Medicine, we read with interest the article titled: Hospital Observation Upon Reversal (HOUR) with Naloxone: A Prospective Clinical Prediction Rule Validation Study by Clemency et al. In order to avoid over-reliance on this decision rule and possible untoward effects of early discharge, we feel that there are some key points worth considering in this regard. It is important to note that the average dose of prehospital naloxone was 3.1mg, which was administered intranasally (IN) in 85% of the patients. This fact was briefly discussed in the paper in terms of area under the …
