Purkinje fibres (PFs) play an important role in some ventricular arrhythmias and acute ventricular stretch can evoke mechanically-induced arrhythmias. We tested whether Purkinje fibres, play a role in these arrhythmias.

Anger and ventricular arrhythmias [PDF]
Although anecdotal evidence has long suggested links between emotion and ventricular arrhythmia, more recent studies have prospectively demonstrated the arrhythmogenic effects of anger, as well as mechanisms underlying these effects.Epidemiological studies reveal that psychological stress increases sudden death, as well as arrhythmias, in patients with

A CLINICAL REVIEW OF VENTRICULAR ARRHYTHMIAS IN PATIENTS WITH CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE
Heart failure is an increasingly prevalent condition, which is associated with ventricular arrhythmias. The reduction in cardiac pumping efficiency leads to the activation of several compensatory mechanisms.

HEART RATE AND QT VARIABILITY IN PATIENTS WITH METABOLIC SYNDROME COMPLICATED BY CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA
One hundred and eighty three male patients aged from 35 to 55 years were examined to study the heart rate variability and the QT dispersion at the metabolic syndrome complicated with cardiac arrhythmias.

Background The coexistence of cardiac arrhythmias in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) usually exhibits poor prognosis. However, there are few contemporary data available on the burden of cardiac arrhythmias in AMI patients and their impact

Dyssynchrony and the Risk of Ventricular Arrhythmias
The aim of our study was to evaluate the relationship between left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony and the risk of ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation (VF) in patients enrolled in the MADIT-CRT (Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial-Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy) trial.Intraventricular mechanical dyssynchrony ...

Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) is associated with malignant ventricular arrhythmias and progressive mitral regurgitation. We describe a 35-year-old man with a history of sudden cardiac death who presented with palpitations and recurrent ventricular ...

Ventricular arrhythmogenesis is thought to be a common cause of sudden cardiac death following myocardial infarction (MI). Nerve remodeling as a result of MI is known to be an important genesis of life-threatening arrhythmias.
