Case report: electrical storm during induced hypothermia in a patient with early repolarization
BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2017 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.

Elimination of Purkinje Fibers by Electroporation Reduces Ventricular Fibrillation Vulnerability
Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018 Background The Purkinje network appears to play a pivotal role in the triggering as well as maintenance of ventricular fibrillation. Irreversible electroporation (IRE) using direct current has shown promise as a nonthermal ablation modality in the heart,

Long QT syndrome provoked by induction of general anesthesia -A case report- [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2010 Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is an arrhythmogenic cardiovascular disorder resulting from mutations in cardiac ion channels. LQTS is characterized by prolonged ventricular repolarization and frequently manifests itself as QT interval prolongation on the ...

Prolonged PR interval, first-degree heart block and adverse cardiovascular outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
, 2016 Objective: First-degree atrioventricular block is frequently encountered in clinical practice and is generally considered a benign process. However, there is emerging evidence that prolonged PR interval may be associated with adverse outcomes. This study

Ventricular fibrillation and defibrillation [PDF]
Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2007 Cardiac arrest in children is not often due to a disturbance in rhythm that is amenable to electrical defibrillation, contrary to the situation in adults. When a shockable rhythm is present, defibrillation using an external electric shock applied at an early stage after pre-oxygenation and chest compressions is of proven efficacy. Success at conversion
