Successful Treatment With Ivabradine for Junctional Ectopic Tachycardia-Induced Cardiomyopathy With Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. [PDF]
A patient with hypoplastic left heart syndrome developed heart failure due to tachycardia‐induced cardiomyopathy from junctional ectopic tachycardia. Conventional antiarrhythmic therapy was ineffective, but ivabradine successfully controlled the arrhythmia and improved both ventricular function and heart failure.
