Reperfusion cardiac arrhythmias and their relation to reperfusion induced cell death [PDF]
, 2018 The aim of this dissertation was to analyse why cardiac arrhythmias occur after opening of the coronary arteries when a patient suffers an acute myocardial infarction. During this event, the heart muscle sustains damage due to a lack of oxygen.

Cryoballoon ablation without use of contrast for the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
Cardiology JournalBACKGROUND: Cryoballoon ablation (CBA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) is usually preceded by demonstrating pulmonary vein (PV) occlusion using contrast. The aim of the study was to determine efficacy and safety of a simplified protocol for CBA performed ...

Molecular basis of cardiac arrhythmias: genetics of natural variants and electrophysiological investigation of mutant proteins [PDF]
, 2010 Channelopathies are diseases caused by deranged functioning of ion channel subunits or the proteins that regulate them. Long QT and Brugada syndrome are included in this group.

Genetic arrhythmias complicating patients with dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]
, 2020 Background: Sudden cardiac death due to malignant arrhythmias is a common cause of death in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Whether genetic variants increase the risk of arrhythmias in DCM is unknown. Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate

Mathematical Modeling to Investigate Antiarrhythmic Drug Side Effects: Rate-Dependence Role in Ionic Currents and Action Potentials Shape in the O’Hara Model [PDF]
Sudden cardiac death due to ventricular arrhythmia is one of the leading causes of mortality in the world. In the last decades, it has proven that anti-arrhythmic drugs, which prolong the refractory period by means of prolongation of the cardiac action ...

Calmodulinopathy: A Novel, Life-Threatening Clinical Entity Affecting the Young
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2018 Sudden cardiac death (SCD) in the young may often be the first manifestation of a genetic arrythmogenic disease that had remained undiagnosed. Despite the significant discoveries of the genetic bases of inherited arrhythmia syndromes, there remains a ...

Atrial Fibrillation and Other Cardiac Arrhythmias (DRAFT) [PDF]
, 2018 Cardiac arrhythmias are common in hospitalized patients, with their incidence increasing in older patients and those with comorbidities. Cardiac arrhythmias represent a trigger for approximately 10% of rapid response team (RRT) activations.

Pulsed-wave tissue Doppler echocardiography for the analysis of fetal cardiac arrhythmias [PDF]
, 2011 Rhythm analysis of the fetal heart is hampered by the inability to routinely obtain electrocardiographic recordings of the fetus. Doppler studies of fetal cardiac tissue movements, assessing cardiac movements both qualitatively and quantitatively, have ...
