Long-term clinical outcomes after single freeze cryoballoon ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation: a 5-year follow-up.
Mugnai G, Paparella G, Overeinder I, Ströker E, Sieira J, Bisignani A, Iacopino S, Boveda S, Beckers S, Umbrain V, Bala G, Brugada P, de Asmundis C, Chierchia GB. Mugnai G, et al. Among authors: umbrain v. J Interv Card Electrophysiol. 2021 Jun;61(1):87-93. doi: 10.1007/s10840-020-00788-w. Epub 2020 May 29. J Interv Card Electrophysiol. 2021. PMID: 32472280
BACKGROUND: The second-generation cryoballoon ablation (CB-A) has been proven to be safe and effective for pulmonary vein (PV) isolation. Little is known regarding the long-term outcome following CB-A ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). ...

Single 3-min freeze per vein ablation strategy with the second-generation cryoballoon for atrial fibrillation in a large cohort of patients: long term outcome after a single procedure.
Coutiño HE, Abugattas JP, Sieira J, Salghetti F, Ströker E, Paparella G, Haine E, Varnavas V, Umbrain V, Terasawa M, De Greef Y, Brugada P, Iacopino S, de Asmundis C, Chierchia GB. Coutiño HE, et al. Among authors: umbrain v. J Interv Card Electrophysiol. 2018 Oct;53(1):81-89. doi: 10.1007/s10840-018-0393-4. Epub 2018 Jun 13. J Interv Card Electrophysiol. 2018. PMID: 29948587
PURPOSE: The purpose of the present study was to assess the long-term success rate of a single 3-min freeze per vein ablation strategy in the setting of pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) by means of second-generation cryoballoon (CB-A; Arctic Front Advance, Medtronic, Minneap …

Repeat Procedures After Hybrid Thoracoscopic Ablation in the Setting of Longstanding Persistent Atrial Fibrillation: Electrophysiological Findings and 2-Year Clinical Outcome.
Velagic V, DE Asmundis C, Mugnai G, Irfan G, Hunuk B, Stroker E, Hacioglu E, Umbrain V, Beckers S, Czapla J, Wellens F, Nijs J, Brugada P, LA Meir M, Chierchia GB. Velagic V, et al. Among authors: umbrain v. J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol. 2016 Jan;27(1):41-50. doi: 10.1111/jce.12837. Epub 2015 Nov 13. J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol. 2016. PMID: 26374195
CONCLUSION: Hybrid atrial fibrillation ablation results in durable lesions and high rates of chronic pulmonary vein isolation even after long-term follow-up. Most of the repeat procedures after the hybrid approach are related to left atrial flutters that could be successfu …

Assessment of intraoperative microaspiration: does a modified cuff shape improve sealing?
D'Haese J, De Keukeleire T, Remory I, Van Rompaey K, Umbrain V, Poelaert J. D'Haese J, et al. Among authors: umbrain v. Acta Anaesthesiol Scand. 2013 Aug;57(7):873-80. doi: 10.1111/aas.12119. Epub 2013 Apr 4. Acta Anaesthesiol Scand. 2013. PMID: 23556486 Clinical Trial.
The use of a tapered-shaped cuff had a protective role against aspiration (T30: OR 3.0, CI 1.57-5.75; P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Short-term use of tapered-shaped polyvinylchloride cuffs in surgical patients results in more effective sealing of the tracheal lumen in compariso …
