Electrophysiological Mechanisms of Ventricular Fibrillation Induction
Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is known as a main responsible cause of sudden cardiac death which claims thousands of lives each year. Although the mechanism of VF induction has been investigated for over a century, its definite mechanism is still ...

Estudio de los mecanismos de las arritmias cardiacas mediante modelado y procesado robusto digital de señal [PDF]
Las arritmias cardiacas son alteraciones del funcionamiento eléctrico normal del corazón. Algunas, las arritmias patológicas, son potencialmente malignas y constituyen una de las principales causas de mortalidad en el mundo occidental.

Myocardial Crypts and Ventricular Fibrillation: Two Case Reports [PDF]
Background Left ventricular myocardial crypts are defined as invaginations traversing >50% of the myocardial wall, with an incidence of 9.1% in the general population.

MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation
Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...

IVABRADINE OUTSIDE THE CLINICAL GUIDELINES: INTEREST OF A PRACTITIONER
The article is focused on the data concerning the influence of ivabradine on myocardial electrophysiology in experimental and clinical studies. It is shown that ivabradine decreases ventricular rate in chronic atrial fibrillation, and prevents the ...

Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...

Abstract Aims The prognostic role of high‐sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs‐cTnT) as a biomarker in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) has yet to be fully determined, especially when compared with B‐type natriuretic peptide (BNP). Methods and Results In this post‐hoc analysis of the ILLUMINATE‐CS (ILLUstration of the Management and prognosIs of ...

Short-coupled premature ventricular contractions in a young male with sudden cardiac arrest
Introduction: Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation secondary to short-coupled premature ventricular contractions (scPVCs) is a rare cause of sudden cardiac arrest and predominantly originates from the His-Purkinje system or right ventricular outflow tract.

Abstract Background Unexplained exertional dyspnoea without significant elevation of natriuretic peptides is common. One of the causes might be early heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Aims This study aimed to characterize patients with exertional dyspnoea and normal/near‐to‐normal N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT ...

Atrial fibrillation begets ventricular fibrillation when the AV node fails [PDF]
Deterioration of atrial fibrillation into ventricular fibrillation has frequently been described in patients with pre-excitation of the ventricles.
