Novel Left Heart Catheterization Ramp Protocol to Guide Hemodynamic Optimization in Patients Supported With Left Ventricular Assist Device Therapy.

abstract：BACKGROUND:It is unclear whether the incidence of non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) has been increasing over time. We aimed to provide contemporary estimates of the incidence and case-fatality of NVAF in a well-defined population. METHODS AND RESULTS:We used the computerized databases of the Régie de l'assurance...
