Electrophysiological effects of diltiazem in chronic bifascicular block
Background: Literature on diltiazem in intraventricular conduction defects is meagre. We studied effects and safety of diltiazem in chronic bifascicular block using His-bundle electrocardiography and pacing.

Background Significant sinus bradycardia (SB) in the context of sinus node dysfunction (SND) has been associated with neurological symptoms. The objective was to evaluate the effect of permanent pacing on the incidence of syncope in patients with rather ...

Outcome of patients aged over 75 years who received a pacemaker to treat sinus node dysfunction [PDF]
SummaryBackgroundThe prognosis for patients aged over 75 years who receive a pacemaker in the context of sinus node dysfunction is unclear.AimsWe sought to evaluate the incidences of atrial fibrillation, heart failure and death in such patients, and the ...

Brugada syndrome and sinus node dysfunction
AbstractBrugada syndrome (BrS) is a well‐known catastrophic disease first reported in 1992 by the Brugada brothers. Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is an essential arrhythmia in BrS. An association between BrS and atrial tachyarrhythmias is not uncommon. However, sinus node dysfunction (SND) associated with BrS has not been well discussed. In this review,

Electrophysiologic evaluation of sinus node function in patients with sinus node dysfunction. [PDF]
Twenty patients of mean age 66.2 years, with suspected sinus node dysfunction, underwent extensive electrophysiologic study. Sinus bradycardia (18), sinus pauses (3), and sinoatrial block (1) were identified in their ECGs prior to study. Also 11 patients had some abnormality of atrioventricular nodal and/or intraventricular conduction prior to study ...

Atrial fibrillation and sinus node dysfunction
We have read with great interest the article by Lombardi et al. [(1)][1], which used analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) to predict recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) after electrical cardioversion.

Six seconds to P wave! Recovered without permanent pacemaker – An enlightening story
Severe symptomatic sinus node dysfunction in obstructive jaundice is known but rarely encountered. Sinus bradycardia in these patients has been attributed to the effect of bile salts on sino-atrial node.

Hemodynamics of a Bileaflet Mechanical Heart Valve with Different Levels of Dysfunction [PDF]
Heart disease is one of leading causes of mortality worldwide. Healthy heart valves are key for proper heart function. When these valves dysfunction, a replacement is often necessary in severe cases. The current study presents an investigation of the pulsatile blood flow through a bileaflet mechanical heart valve (BMHV) where one leaflet is healthy and
