Cardiovascular disease affects nearly half of the adults in the United States, posing a significant public health challenge.

Members of CVRI Theme ‘Arrhythmias & Channelopathies’ are involved in various translational and clinical research projects in cardiac electrophysiology. Specific areas of interest include the ...

However, attempts to definitively classify the arrhythmia mechanism of focal AT in the electrophysiology laboratory are limited due to the significant overlap in the arrhythmia characteristics ...

Further research is needed to clarify these mechanisms and develop targeted interventions for post-MI conduction system dysfunction and associated arrhythmias. The Connexin 40 -enhanced green ...

Despite the obvious medical significance, much remains to be understood about the mechanisms responsible for the formation and evolution of arrhythmias in the human heart. Cherry's research, which is ...

The mystery of what ultimately causes arrhythmias and heart failure is the research focus of CRML’s Steven Pogwizd, M.D., an expert in electrophysiology and cellular mechanisms of arrhythmias. “Our ...

Sinus arrhythmia is a variation in the heart's sinus rhythm, usually caused by changes in a person's breathing cycle. It's a ...

Heart arrhythmias are treated with various medications ... There are different types of anticoagulants based on their mechanism of action: Vitamin K antagonists: Block vitamin K-dependent clotting ...
