The clinical effect of arrhythmia monitoring after myocardial infarction (BIO-GUARD|MI):study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Trials, 2019
Background The increasing use of implantable cardiac monitors (ICMs) allows early documentation of asymptomatic cardiac arrhythmias that would previously have gone unnoticed.

Andersen-Tawil Syndrome [PDF]

, 2006
Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare condition consisting of ventricular arrhythmias, periodic paralysis, and dysmorphic features. In 2001, mutations in KCNJ2, which encodes the α subunit of the potassium channel Kir2.1, were identified in patients ...

Nonlinear physics of electrical wave propagation in the heart: a review [PDF]

, 2016
The beating of the heart is a synchronized contraction of muscle cells (myocytes) that are triggered by a periodic sequence of electrical waves (action potentials) originating in the sino-atrial node and propagating over the atria and the ventricles ...

Cardiac arrhythmias and pacing [PDF]

Srce i krvni sudovi, 2012
In the last two years, a number of land-mark clinical trials have been published which further our understanding and clinical management of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Two of the major goals in the treatment of this condition include reducing pro-gression or recurrence of the arrhythmia and decrea-sing the risk of cardiovascular events ...

Regional differences in APD restitution can initiate wavebreak and re-entry in cardiac tissue: A computational study [PDF]

, 2005
Background Regional differences in action potential duration (APD) restitution in the heart favour arrhythmias, but the mechanism is not well understood.

Osborn Waves: History and Significance [PDF]

, 2004
The Osborn wave is a deflection with a dome or hump configuration occurring at the R-ST junction (J point) on the ECG (Fig. 1). In the historical view, different names have been used for this wave in the medical literature, such as “camel-hump sign ...
