Ablation of supraventricular tachycardia in elderly persons presents ... a novel rapid ablation method to permanently cure atrial ventricular nodal re-entry tachycardia is demonstrated.

AVRT = atrioventricular reciprocating tachycardia; HPS = His-Purkinje system; PVC = premature ventricular contraction; RV = right ventricular; SVT = supraventricular tachycardia. Late PVC fails to ...

and response to therapy in catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) probands. Methods and results: We identified 13 missense mutations in the cardiac ryanodine receptor (RYR2) in ...

Medtronic has received Food and Drug Administration approval to study its Affera mapping and ablation system and Sphere-9 catheter to treat sustained ventricular tachycardia, an abnormal rhythm of the ...

A 28-year-old man is described with no demonstrable organic heart disease and recurrent paroxysmal attacks of sustained ventricular tachycardia. Lignocaine and ajmaline failed to terminate the first ...

In addition to ventricular pre-excitation observed in sinus rhythm, the electrophysiological consequences of this connection include the paroxysmal occurrence of atrioventricular reciprocating ...

Due to the fact that the tricuspid and mitral valves follow their respective ventricles, there is often a misalignment between the atrial and ventricular septa, disrupting the normal embryological ...

When SVT occurs, the heart rate can reach up to 200 beats per minute or more ... Typically forming on your skin near varicose veins, venous ulcers may affect one or both legs. Ventricular tachycardia ...

Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an increase in the mass (weight) of the left ventricle, which is the heart's main pumping chamber. LVH develops either when the force or volume of blood within ...

A cardiac electrophysiologist is a cardiologist who has 2 years of extra training to learn about heart rhythms and how to diagnose problems with them. Training to become certified as a cardiac ...
