Effects of halothane on the conduction system of the heart in humans
The effects of 2.0 MAC halothane on atrioventricular conduction times in humans were studied. A real-time recording system for the detection of surface His-Purkinje potentials based on signal averaging techniques was used.

Frontiers in conduction system pacing: treatment of long PR in patients with heart failure [PDF]
Patients with heart failure who have a prolonged PR interval are at a greater risk of adverse clinical outcomes than those with a normal PR interval. Potential mechanisms of harm relating to prolonged PR intervals include reduced ventricular filling and ...

Malaria and the conducting system of the heart [PDF]
We report the case of an adult male patient who was admitted to our hospital with a diagnosis of vivax malaria complicated with renal insufficiency and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The patient was treated with intravenous artesunate. He was intubated and mechanically ventilated and taken up for haemodialysis in view of worsening renal ...

Anatomical considerations and emerging strategies for reducing new onset conduction disturbances in percutaneous structural heart disease interventions [PDF]
Transcatheter procedures offer an alternative to cardiac surgery in select patients with structural heart disease (SHD). Unfortunately, inadvertent disruption of electrical pathways and subsequent development of new onset conduction disturbances can ...

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 ...

Recruitment of the cardiac conduction system for optimal resynchronization therapy in failing heart
Heart failure (HF) is a leading health burden around the world. Although pharmacological development has dramatically advanced medication therapy in the field, hemodynamic disorders or mechanical desynchrony deteriorated by intra or interventricular ...
