Modern Perspectives on Numerical Modeling of Cardiac Pacemaker Cell

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2014
.: Cardiac pacemaking is a complex phenomenon that is still not completely understood. Together with experimental studies, numerical modeling has been traditionally used to acquire mechanistic insights in this research area.

Harnessing cell reprogramming for cardiac biological pacing

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2023
Electrical impulses from cardiac pacemaker cardiomyocytes initiate cardiac contraction and blood pumping and maintain life. Abnormal electrical impulses bring patients with low heart rates to cardiac arrest.

On the Evolution of the Cardiac Pacemaker

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2017
The rhythmic contraction of the heart is initiated and controlled by an intrinsic pacemaker system. Cardiac contractions commence at very early embryonic stages and coordination remains crucial for survival.

Electrical interventricular delay and left ventricular delay in right ventricular pacemaker pacing before upgrading to cardiac resynchronization therapy

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2017
Cardiac resynchronization therapy with biventricular pacing is an established therapy for heart failure patients with sinus rhythm, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction and electrical ventricular desynchronization.

Post-cardiac injury syndrome following transvenous pacing: Case report

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2014
Post-cardiac injury syndrome (PCIS) is an inflammatory process involving the pericardium secondary to cardiac injury. It can develop after cardiac trauma, cardiac surgery, myocardial infarction, and, rarely, after certain intravascular procedures.

Delayed perforation of the right ventricle by pacemaker/automated implantable cardioverter-defibrillator lead: A single-center experience

open access: yesHeart India, 2021
Introduction: Cardiac perforation by pacemaker/automatic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (AICD) lead can be a life-threatening emergency. Delayed cardiac perforation by pacemaker/AICD lead is defined as perforation occurring after a period of 1 ...

Irradiation treatment of laryngeal cancer in a patient with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: Due to an aging population the incidence of both cardiac and tumor-related illnesses is increasing. A problem may arise if radiotherapy is necessary in close anatomic proximity to an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD).

Successful conversion of complete atrioventricular block to sinus rhythm without cardiac pacemaker: A case report

open access: yesJKKI (Jurnal Kedokteran dan Kesehatan Indonesia), 2019
Complete atrioventricular (AV) block is a medical emergency, which is related to cardiac arrest if left untreated. The insertion of permanent cardiac pacemaker is strongly indicated for its treatment.

Prolonged PR interval, first-degree heart block and adverse cardiovascular outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objective: First-degree atrioventricular block is frequently encountered in clinical practice and is generally considered a benign process. However, there is emerging evidence that prolonged PR interval may be associated with adverse outcomes. This study
