Article Abstract
Transvenous leads continue to be the standard means to deliver bradyarrhythmia and tachyarrhythmia device therapy. Risk factors for cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) infection or complications of transvenous lead extraction (TLE) and mortality represent a complex interplay between non-modifiable patient-related factors and actionable implant-related characteristics or adverse events. Careful attention to patient screening, infection mitigation, lead selection, and implant technique may enhance safety of the index procedure and subsequent clinical management.

Poor Accuracy of Blood Pressure Measurement Images Online: Implications for Public Health Education.

School of Population Health, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia (A.E.S.).
Background: Blood pressure (BP) is a common clinical measurement, now increasingly done at home. Media websites often display images of BP measurement to represent clinical medicine, but many images deviate from guidelines, potentially creating misperceptions on how measurement should be performed. We evaluated the accuracy of BP measurement images online according to the 2023 International Consensus on Standardized Clinic BP Measurement.

Helicopter Emergency Medical Service Lifeliner 3, Nijmegen, the Netherlands.
Background: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest management prioritises effective treatment, with high-quality chest compressions and timely defibrillation being essential. While current European Resuscitation Council guidelines recommend sternal-apical defibrillator pad placement, alternative positions such as anterior-posterior (AP) are gaining interest. The integration of secondary AP pad placement with mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation devices (mCPR) remains underexplored.

Background: In adults without cardiovascular disease (CVD), there is limited understanding of the association between overall cardiovascular health (CVH) and arterial health.
Methods: In 2330 Framingham Heart Study Offspring participants free of CVD (60±9 years; 57% women) with Life's Essential 8 (LE8) and applanation tonometry data (Exam 7), we calculated CVH scores per American Heart Association's LE8 guidelines. Multivariable-adjusted regression analyses examined the relations of LE8 with aortic stiffness and pressure pulsatility [negative inverse carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (niCFPWV), central pulse pressure (CPP), respectively], and examined effect modification by age and sex.
