Conduction defects and arrhythmias in mdx mice are not associated with a degeneration of the cardiac Purkinje network [PDF]
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe X-chromosomal disease characterised by progressive muscle weakness and degeneration. Cardiac involvement is inevitable in DMD patients and ventricular arrhythmias are a high-risk factor for mortality in these

Conduction system pacing in adults with congenital heart disease
Conduction system pacing is a growing sub-speciality within electrophysiology and its use is expanding. We conduct a review of the current state of knowledge, evidence and future direction for conduction system pacing in adult congenital heart disease.

Conduction system pacing in pediatric and congenital heart disease
Conduction system pacing (CSP) has evolved rapidly to become the pacing method of choice for many adults with structurally normal hearts. Studies in this population have repeatedly demonstrated superior hemodynamics and outcomes compared to conventional ...
