Catheter ablation for the treatment of electrical storm in patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators: short- and long-term outcomes in a prospective single-center study
Carbucicchio C, Santamaria M, Trevisi N, Maccabelli G, Giraldi F, Fassini G, et al.
Circulation . 2008 Jan; 117(4):462-9. PMID: 18172038
Background: Electrical storm (ES) caused by recurrent episodes of ventricular tachycardia (VT) can cause sudden death in patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators and adversely affects prognosis in survivors. Catheter ablation has...

Left mitral isthmus ablation associated with PV Isolation: long-term results of a prospective randomized study
Fassini G, Riva S, Chiodelli R, Trevisi N, Berti M, Carbucicchio C, et al.
J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol . 2005 Nov; 16(11):1150-6. PMID: 16302895
Background: The deployment of an ablation line connecting the left inferior PV to the mitral annulus (mitral isthmus line [MIL]) enhances the efficacy of pulmonary vein disconnection (PVD) in preventing...

Cardiac resynchronization therapy improves heart rate profile and heart rate variability of patients with moderate to severe heart failure
Fantoni C, Raffa S, Regoli F, Giraldi F, La Rovere M, Prentice J, et al.
J Am Coll Cardiol . 2005 Nov; 46(10):1875-82. PMID: 16286175

Long-term reduction of atrial tachyarrhythmia recurrences in patients paced for bradycardia-tachycardia syndrome
Padeletti L, Santini M, Boriani G, Botto G, Gulizia M, Molon G, et al.
Heart Rhythm . 2005 Sep; 2(10):1047-57. PMID: 16188580
Background: Atrial tachyarrhythmias (AT) are considered progressive diseases. Several rhythm control therapies for treatment of AT have been proposed. Objectives: The Italian AT500 Registry was designed to prospectively study long-term...

Incidence and significance of pleomorphism in patients with postmyocardial infarction ventricular tachycardia. Acute and long-term outcome of radiofrequency catheter ablation
Della Bella P, Riva S, Fassini G, Giraldi F, Berti M, Klersy C, et al.
Eur Heart J . 2004 Jul; 25(13):1127-38. PMID: 15231371
Aims: The prognostic significance of multiple ventricular tachycardia (VT) morphologies, whether spontaneous or induced, was investigated in patients who underwent radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) for postinfarction ventricular tachycardia. Methods And...
