Idiopathic Ventricular Fibrillation — Just How Much Idiopathic is it? [PDF]
Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation is diagnosed in survivors of sudden cardiac death that has been caused by ventricular fibrillation without known structural or electrical abnormalities, even after extensive investigation.

Ventricular fibrillation induced by fever in structurally normal hearts
Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a life-threatening arrhythmia that usually happens in patients with structural heart diseases. However, fever-induced ventricular fibrillation in structurally normal hearts was reported, and the four main diseases ...

A study of early afterdepolarizations in a model for human ventricular tissue [PDF]
Sudden cardiac death is often caused by cardiac arrhythmias. Recently, special attention has been given to a certain arrhythmogenic condition, the long-QT syndrome, which occurs as a result of genetic mutations or drug toxicity. The underlying mechanisms

The year in cardiology: arrhythmias and pacing. [PDF]
During this last year, there has been much progress with regard to anticoagulant and ablation therapy for atrial fibrillation (AF). Apart from recently issued European Society of Cardiology Guidelines for the management of patients with supraventricular ...

Imaging ventricular fibrillation [PDF]
Ventricular fibrillation (VF) had been traditionally considered as a highly disorganized process of random electrical activity emanating from multiple, short-lived, reentrant electrical waves. It is the incessant breakup of wave fronts and the creation of new daughter waves (wavebreaks) that perpetuate VF. Other studies described VF as a process with a

Case report: electrical storm during induced hypothermia in a patient with early repolarization
Background Population based studies showed an association of early repolarization in the electrocardiogram (ECG) and a higher rate of sudden cardiac death presumably due to ventricular fibrillation.

Background: Vasospastic angina (VA), or Prinzmetal’s angina, is characterized by symptoms of coronary angina caused by coronary vasospasm, usually in the absence of atherosclerotic changes.

Single beat determination of intraventricular systolic dyssynchrony in paitents with atrial fibrillation and systolic dysfunction [PDF]
Background:: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common clinically significant cardiac arrhythmia. However, diagnosis of intraventricular dyssynchrony in patients with AF is difficult due to beat-to-beat variation. Additionally, evaluation of mechanical

In our study 100 consecutive non-valvular permanent atrial fibrillation patients with NYHA I – III heart failure, 43 - 86 years old (65 men and 35 women) were examined. Control group consisted of 30 patients with arterial hypertension and coronary artery
