Cardiac Surgery for Arrhythmias
Surgical treatment for cardiac arrhythmias was initiated in 1968 with the first successful surgical division of an accessory atrioventricular connection for the Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome. Subsequent surgical procedures were the left atrial isolation procedure and the right atrial isolation procedure for the automatic atrial tachycardias, corridor procedure and the Maze procedure, developed...

Disorders of cardiac rate and rhythm represent major causes of mortality and morbidity in developed countries. Sudden cardiac death, defined as death within 1 hour of an unexpected change in cardiovascular status, kills more than 300,000 people each year in the United States (29), whereas nonlethal arrhythmias account for much additional disability. Atrial fibrillation, a leading cause of cereb...
متن کاملCardiac Arrhythmias
Cardiac arrhythmias are disturbances in the rhythm of the heart, manifested by irregularity or by abnormally fast rates (tachycardias) or abnormally slow rates (bradycardias). Patients who perceive these abnormalities most frequently observe palpitations,which somedescribe as the sensation of ‘my heart turning over in my chest’, or awareness that their hearts are beating rapidly or slowly. Othe...
متن کاملGene Therapy for Cardiac Arrhythmias.
UNLABELLED Morbidity and mortality caused by cardiac arrhythmias are a major issue in developed countries. Although conventional therapeutic options including pharmacological therapy, catheter ablation, and implantable devices have shown extensive advances to help reduce morbidity and mortality, a certain segment of these arrhythmias is still refractory to treatment. Therefore, gene therapy was...
متن کاملTherapies for ventricular cardiac arrhythmias.
During recent years, engineers and physicists have become increasingly interested in studying the electrical activity of the heart. Despite the fact that the heart is a complex and highly nonlinear system, its electrical behavior can be studied using a variety of experimental and clinical techniques, and can be modeled mathematically using relatively simple systems of differential equations, al...
