Pacemaker Malfunctions on ECG

Recognizing pacing issues is crucial in clinical practice. From failure to capture, sense, or pace, to pacemaker-mediated tachycardia and oversensing/undersensing, each has distinct ECG patterns with important implications for patient care.

Systolic vs Diastolic Heart Failure

👉Systolic (HFrEF) presents with weak LV, low EF, and a dilated chamber.
👉Diastolic (HFpEF) presents with stiff LV, normal EF, preserved size.

The new nomenclature is HFrEF and HFpEF, but they are generally related to systolic and diastolic HF.

How do you diagnose AFib? 🫀
Atrial fibrillation isn’t always obvious. Some patients feel palpitations, others just feel off. And some? They don’t feel anything at all.

Whether you’re a clinician or in training, save this as a quick reference for smarter, earlier detection.

September is AFib Awareness Month.

Atrial fibrillation remains the most common sustained arrhythmia in clinical practice and continues to carry a significant burden of stroke and heart failure.

When reviewing ECGs:
➡️ Always correlate rhythm findings with clinical context, especially in patients with vague symptoms like fatigue or mild dyspnea.
➡️ Consider extended ambulatory monitoring in those with intermittent palpitations or unexplained stroke.
➡️ Don't forget to reassess stroke risk over time as risk scores evolve with age and comorbidities.

This month, we are sharing updates and insights on AFib detection, management, and emerging strategies. Stay tuned!

Heart failure prevention starts long before symptoms appear.

Join us for an exclusive conversation with Dr. Martha Gulati, Director of Preventive Cardiology at Cedars-Sinai and former ASPC President, and Dr. Anu Lala, Associate Professor at Mount Sinai and Co-Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Cardiac Failure, as they break down the first-ever HFSA–ASPC Joint Statement on heart failure prevention, and why it’s a game-changer for clinical practice.

Read the statement here: doi.org/10.1016/j.ajpc.2025.101069

In this live discussion, they’ll cover highlights from the paper:
👉 How to reframe HF as a preventable syndrome, not an inevitable outcome
👉Expanding risk assessment beyond traditional factors
👉 Using CKM care, risk tools, and biomarkers to intervene earlier
👉Practical steps for building multidisciplinary prevention models

📅 Date: Thursday, August 14
🕒 Time: 10:30 AM EST/7:30 AM PST

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) affects over 200 million people worldwide, yet it often goes underdiagnosed.
Caused by atherosclerotic plaque buildup, PAD reduces blood flow in the arteries, especially to the lower extremities.
Common symptoms include claudication, rest pain, ulcers, and, at its worst, critical limb ischemia (CLI).
PAD also signals a broader cardiovascular threat, increasing the risk of MI and stroke by up to 6x.
Diagnosis relies on simple non-invasive and imaging tools like ABI, CT, MRI, and ultrasound.

An enlarged heart isn’t a disease itself, but a symptom. Cardiomegaly often develops as the heart tries to work harder to compensate for serious underlying conditions.
