The findings suggest that use of the pacing technique during CRT should be reserved for expert operators, at least for now.

Scientists studying genetic data from nearly 50,000 people have uncovered several DNA sequence variations associated with the electrical impulses that make the heart beat. The findings may pave the ...

INJURY to the invisible subendocardial conduction system during surgical closure of congenital defects in the ventricular septum is an uncommon but extremely grave complication. 1,2 Impalement of ...

New research highlights postnatal regeneration limits and pathological remodeling of the cardiac conduction system after myocardial infarction, uncovering mechanisms behind clinical arrhythmogenesis ...

Figure 2: Reduction in heart rate during atrial fibrillation after Gα i2 gene transfer. This study is the first report of intracoronary site-specific gene transfer and the first use of gene therapy to ...

You are reviewing an ECG you arranged for a 56-year-old man with newly diagnosed hypertension. The trace is normal but the computerised report notes ‘first-degree heart block’. Looking at the ...

A new therapy to re-engage the heart's natural electrical pathways - instead of bypassing them - could mean more treatment options for heart failure patients who also suffer from electrical ...

Lucknow: King George's Medical University (KGMU) has introduced ‘Advanced Conduction System Pacing', a new pacemaker method, which helps the heart bea.

But slow conduction of action potentials that can lead to heart arrhythmias depends on calcium channels, which, in turn, are modulated by cell calcium. "CaMKII mediates an important regulatory pathway ...
