Background - Data about ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation in patients with electrical storm (ES) is limited. - Objectives - This study sought to compare the prognostic outcome of patients undergoing VT ablation after ES with and without a septal substrate. - Methods - In this large single-center study, consecutive patients presenting with ES and undergoing VT ablation from June 2018 to April 2021 were included. Patients with septal substrate were compared with patients without septal substrate regarding endpoints of cardiovascular mortality, VT recurrences, recurrences of the clinical VT, and rehospitalization rates. - Results - A total of 107 patients undergoing a first VT ablation because of electrical storm (ES) were included (age 65 ± 13 years, 86% male, 45% ischemic cardiomyopathy). Major complications occurred in 11% of all patients with increased postinterventional third-degree atrioventricular blocks among patients with septal substrate (9% vs 0%; P = 0.063). Partial ablation successes were similar (95% with a septal substrate vs 100% without a septal substrate; P = 0.251). Complete ablation success was achieved in 63% with a septal substrate and in 87% without a septal substrate (P = 0.004). After a median 22 months of follow-up, patients with septal substrate died significantly more often from cardiovascular causes (26% vs 7%; log-rank P = 0.018). In univariate analysis cardiovascular mortality for ES patients with septal substrate was 4.1-fold higher (HR: 4.192; CI: 1.194-14.719; P = 0.025). Independent predictors of adverse outcome in multivariable regression analysis were presence of septal substrate (HR: 5.723; P = 0.025) and increased age (HR: 1.104; P = 0.003). Recurrences of any ventricular arrhythmia (67% vs 56%; log rank P = 0.554) and rehospitalization rates (80% vs 66%; log rank P = 0.515) were similar between groups. Recurrences of clinical VT were similar (7% vs 2%; P = 0.252). - Conclusions - Presence of a septal substrate is associated with adverse long-term cardiovascular mortality in patients admitted for VT ablation after ES. Despite decreased acute ablation successes in these patients, VT recurrence rates were similar to those without a septal substrate during follow-up.

Pulmonary vein isolation using radiofrequency ablation is an effective treatment option for patients with symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF). Application of high power over a short period of time (HPSD) is reported to create more efficient lesions and may prevent collateral thermal oesophageal injury. This study aims to compare efficacy and safety of two different HPSD ablation approaches using different ablation index settings.Consecutive patients undergoing AF ablation with HPSD (50 W; ablation index-guided) using the ThermoCool SmartTouch SF catheter were included. Patients were grouped by ablation protocol: ablation with target ablation index (AI) of 400 on the anterior left atrial wall vs. 300 at the posterior left atrial wall (AI 400/300) or AI 450/350 was performed upon the operator’s preference and compared. Peri-procedural parameters and complications were recorded, and incidences of endoscopically detected thermal oesophageal lesions (EDEL) analysed. Recurrence rates after a mean follow-up of 25 ± 7 months and reconnection patterns in patients undergoing redo procedures were investigated. A total of 795 patients (67 ± 10 years; 58% male; 48% paroxysmal AF) underwent a first AF ablation with HPSD (211 in group AI 400/300 and 584 in group 450/350). Median procedure time was 82.9 ± 24.6 min with longer ablation times in patients with target AI 400/300 due to higher intraprocedural reconnection rates, increased box lesions, and additional right atrial isthmus ablations. One hundred three patients (16%) underwent a redo procedure during follow-up documented comparable pulmonary vein (PV) reconnection among groups. Multivariate predictors of AF recurrence were age, left atrium (LA) size, persistent AF, and extra-PV ablation targets.High-power short-duration AF ablation with target AI of 400 for non-posterior wall and 300 for posterior wall lesions resulted in comparable long-term results compared to higher AI (450/350) ablations with significantly lower risk for thermal oesophageal lesions. Older age, larger LA size, persistent AF, and extra-PV ablation targets were identified in a multivariate analysis as independent risk factors for recurrences of atrial arrhythmias.

Background: Electrical storm (ES) represents a serious heart rhythm disorder. This study investigates the impact of ES on acute ablation success and long-term outcomes after VT ablation compared to non-ES patients. Methods: In this large single-centre study, patients presenting with ES and undergoing VT ablation from June 2018 to April 2021 were compared to patients undergoing VT ablation due to ventricular tachyarrhythmias but without ES. The primary prognostic outcome was VT recurrence, and secondary endpoints were rehospitalization rates and cardiovascular mortality, all after a median follow-up of 22 months. Results: A total of 311 patients underwent a first VT ablation due to ventricular tachyarrhythmias and were included (63 ± 14 years; 86% male). Of these, 108 presented with ES. In the ES cohort, dilated cardiomyopathy as underlying heart disease was significantly higher (p = 0.008). Major complications were equal across both groups (all p > 0.05). Ablation of the clinical VT was achieved in 94% of all patients (p > 0.05). Noninducibility of any VT was achieved in 91% without ES and in 76% with ES (p = 0.001). Patients with ES revealed increased VT recurrence rates during follow-up (65% vs. 40%; log rank p = 0.001; HR 1.841, 95% CI 1.289-2.628; p = 0.001). Furthermore, ES patients suffered from increased rehospitalization rates (73% vs. 48%; log rank p = 0.001; HR 1.948, 95% CI 1.415-2.682; p = 0.001) and cardiovascular mortality (18% vs. 9%; log rank p = 0.045; HR 1.948, 95% CI 1.004-3.780; p = 0.049). After multivariable adjustment, ES was a strong independent predictor of VT recurrence and rehospitalization rates, but not for mortality. In a propensity score-matched cohort, patients with ES still had a higher risk of VT recurrences and rehospitalizations compared to non-ES patients. Conclusions: VT ablation in patients with ES is challenging and these patients reveal the highest risk for recurrent VTs, rehospitalization and cardiovascular mortality. These patients need close follow-ups and optimal guideline-directed therapy.

Die Ansichtskarte ist ein Erfolgsmedium des 20. Jahrhunderts. Mit ihrer Beidseitigkeit von Text und Bild ist sie seit der Nachkriegszeit zur Ikone des modernen Massentourismus geworden. Den Gruß aus der Ferne mit Mitteilungen über das Erlebte zu verbinden, gehört seither zu den Alltagsritualen des Urlaubs. Aber was genau schreiben Menschen auf Ansichtskarten? Welche sprachlich-kommunikativen Muster des Urlaubsgrußes haben sich bewährt und wie haben sie sich im Laufe der Jahrzehnte verändert? Und droht die Ansichtskarte angesichts der Konkurrenz elektronischer Nachfolger auszusterben? Die Beiträger*innen des Bandes gehen diese Fragen unter korpus-, text- und kulturlinguistischen Gesichtspunkten empirisch nach
