Advances in Physiological Cardiac Stimulation [PDF]
Advances in cardiac stimulation demonstrate that bradyarrhythmia treatments go beyond heart rate control. The concern with the ventricular stimulation site and, consequently, with the maintenance of intraventricular synchrony has become routine in most ...

Cardiac myosin binding protein C, adrenergic stimulation and cardiac contractility [PDF]
Myosin binding protein C remained a perplexing although integral component of the sarcomeric thick filament until the discovery that genetic defects in its corresponding gene is a frequent cause of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Basic science investigation

Feasibility of physiological pacing rate in cardiac resynchronization therapy
Aims Although cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) improves functional capacity in heart failure patients, a blunted heart rate (HR) response remains after treatment.

Cardiac Stimulation in the Third Millennium: Where Do We Head from Here?
Over the years, pacemakers have evolved from a life-saving tool to prevent asystole to a device to treat heart rhythm disorders and heart failure, aiming at improving both cardiac function and clinical outcomes.

Bridging the future of cardiac stimulation: physiologic or leadless pacing?
Cardiac simulation has moved from early life-saving pacemakers meant only to prevent asystole to current devices capable of physiologic stimulation for the treatment of heart rhythm and heart failure, that are also intended for remote patient and disease-

Modeling Cardiac Stimulation by a Pacemaker, with Accurate Tissue-Electrode Interface
International audienceAn implantable pacemaker aims to restore a cardiac beat when the intrisic conduction system fails. It sends energy to the heart in the form of a voltage pulse and it is programmed to deliver enough energy to trigger a cardiac ...

Stimulating endogenous cardiac repair [PDF]
The healthy adult heart has a low turnover of cardiac myocytes. The renewal capacity, however, is augmented after cardiac injury. Participants in cardiac regeneration include cardiac myocytes themselves, cardiac progenitor cells, and peripheral stem cells, particularly from the bone marrow compartment.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) commonly occurs in association with chronic kidney disease (CKD), resulting in adverse outcomes. Combining pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and renal sympathetic denervation (RSD) may reduce the recurrence of AF in ...

Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation: retrospective assessment of cardiac safety in a pilot study. [PDF]
Background: Vagus nerve stimulation has been successfully used as a treatment strategy for epilepsy and affective disorders for years. Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) is a new non-invasive method to stimulate the vagus nerve, which has been
