Effects of Propofol on the Cardiac Conduction System
Some studies have demonstrated that the use of propofol is occasionally associated with bradyarrhythmias or reversion of arrhythmias to sinus rhythm. This property of propofol suggests interference with the Cardiac Conduction System (CCS).A review of the main contemporary articles on the use of propofol in the presence of cardiac arrhythmias was ...

Direct reprogramming of cardiomyocytes into cardiac Purkinje-like cells
Summary: Currently, there are no treatments that ameliorate cardiac cell death, the underlying basis of cardiovascular disease. An unexplored cell type in cardiac regeneration is cardiac Purkinje cells; specialized cells from the cardiac conduction ...

A 21st century view of the anatomy of the cardiac conduction system
Introduction: Since the discovery of the major components of the cardiac conduction system (CCS) by the early 20th century we have seen many technological advancements that have allowed immense insight into the CCS tissues. In this review we will discuss

Cardiac conduction system- A detailed study in 46 cases of sudden death
Background: Atherosclerotic coronary artery disease is the modern pandemic and is said to be responsible for a major chunk of sudden cardiac deaths. However, in few cases; especially among the young, conduction system abnormalities were found to be the ...
