Vulnerability to ventricular fibrillation [PDF]
One of the factors that favors the development of ventricular fibrillation is an increase in the dispersion of refractoriness. Experiments will be described in which an increase in dispersion in the recovery of excitability was determined during brief episodes of enhanced sympathetic nerve activity, known to increase the risk of fibrillation.

Unexpected Lethal Complication of Ventricular Fibrillation in Symptom Free Variant Angina Pectoris
We report an unexpected sudden cardiac death due to variant angina complicated by ventricular fibrillation occurring during routine ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring.

Increased baseline ECG R-R dispersion predicts improvement in systolic function after atrial fibrillation ablation. [PDF]
BackgroundAtrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction which may improve after AF ablation. We hypothesised that increased ventricular irregularity, as measured by R-R dispersion on the baseline ECG, would ...

Ventricular fibrillation is the most common mechanism of sudden unexpected cardiac death in persons with asymptomatic or symptomatic coronary artery disease. The electrophysiologic mechanisms reviewed in this article include: automaticity of pacemaker fibers, transformation of nonpacemaker into pacemaker fibers, "injury" currents and reentry.

Ventricular arrhythmias are an important cause of morbidity and mortality and come in a variety of forms, from single premature ventricular complexes to sustained ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation. Rapid developments have taken place over the past

An 88-year-old female presented with inappropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator shocks. Interrogation revealed lead noise sensed as ventricular fibrillation, leading to 11 shocks in 1 day. A defibrillation at the period of maximal vulnerability

Potential Application of Pulsed Field Ablation in Ventricular Arrhythmias
Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a new ablative method for the therapy of arrhythmia. Recent preclinical and clinical studies have already demonstrated the feasibility and safety of PFA for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF).

Atrial Fibrillation Degenerates Into Ventricular Fibrillation
![Figure][1] A 43-year-old man with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) and an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) placed for documented ventricular fibrillation (VF), presented with an ICD shock. Ventricular pre-excitation was not present.

Summary: After myocardial infarction, remote ventricular remodeling and atrial cardiomyopathy progress despite successful revascularization. In a rat model of ventricular ischemia/reperfusion, pharmacological inhibition of the protease activity of ...
