Cardiac device therapy has significantly evolved since the introduction of the first implantable pacemaker and the subsequent ...

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

Researchers have produced the most detailed and comprehensive human Heart Cell Atlas to date, including the specialized tissue of the cardiac conduction system -- where the heartbeat originates. In a ...

Cardiac arrhythmias and conduction defects are common. They can be an acute problem presenting for the first time, or part of a chronic disease course complicated by acute decompensation at periods of ...

Researchers have produced the most detailed and comprehensive human heart cell atlas to date, including the specialized tissue of the cardiac conduction system—where the heartbeat originates. The team ...

In this article, the focus is on cardiac rhythm and conduction abnormalities of the heart, which all have unique presenting characteristics. These characteristics include ectopic beats, tachycardias ...

Researchers have identified bi-allelic variants in the POPDC2 gene as the cause of a rare inherited cardiac syndrome characterized by sinus node dysfunction, atrioventricular (AV) conduction defects ...

People who exercise vigorously and have long QT syndrome (LQTS), an inherited disorder of the heart's electrical system that leads to chaotic heartbeats, do not have a higher risk of adverse cardiac ...

Shopping. Traveling. Planning family gatherings. The stress of the holiday season can make you feel like you need to slip some spirits into your hot cocoa. And at celebrations, there's often plenty of ...
