RHYTHM-AF: design of an international registry on cardioversion of atrial fibrillation and characteristics of participating centers [PDF]
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation is a serious public health problem posing a considerable burden to not only patients, but the healthcare environment due to high rates of morbidity, mortality, and medical resource utilization. There are limited data on the

Flecainide Toxicity Leading to Loss of Pacemaker Capture and Cardiac Arrest
An 86-year-old man with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation on flecainide, a class IC antiarrhythmic, presented with cardiac arrest. The patient had extremely wide QRS complexes with inconsistent pacemaker capture on electrocardiography.

Flecainide reduces Ca2+ spark and wave frequency via inhibition of the sarcolemmal sodium current [PDF]
AIMS: Ca(2+) waves are thought to be important in the aetiology of ventricular tachyarrhythmias. There have been conflicting results regarding whether flecainide reduces Ca(2+) waves in isolated cardiomyocytes.

Electropermeabilization of inner and outer cell membranes with microsecond pulsed electric field. Quantitative study with calcium ions [PDF]
Microsecond pulsed electric fields (mu sPEF) permeabilize the plasma membrane (PM) and are widely used in research, medicine and biotechnology. For internal membranes permeabilization, nanosecond pulsed electric fields (nsPEF) are applied but this ...

Effect of flecainide on regional left ventricular wall motion after acute intravenous, acute oral and chronic oral administration late after coronary artery bypass grafting [PDF]
Epicardial marker motion was measured in 14 patients before flecainide administration, immediately after an intravenous dose of 2 mg/kg over 15 minutes (maximum 150 mg) and 15 minutes thereafter. Platinum epicardial markers had been implanted more than 4

Alteration of Ventricular Fibrillation by Flecainide, Verapamil, and Sotalol [PDF]
Background—The purpose of this study was to determine whether the myocardial electrophysiological properties are useful for predicting changes in the ventricular fibrillatory pattern. Methods and Results—Thirty-two Langendorff-perfused rabbit hearts were
