Sex Differences in Sudden Cardiac Death
Ischemic heart disease continues to be the leading cause of death in most countries and a major health burden, with approximately 50% of deaths due to sudden cardiac death (SCD) [Zipes & Wellens, 1998; Wong et al. 2001; Mazeika 2001]. The increasing prevalence of diabetes will also impact on SCD incidence. Patients with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes have significantly higher mortality and mo...
متن کاملCardiac Electrophysiology
Recently, significant achievements have beenmade in cardiac electrophysiology research, including Ca regulatory pathways, membrane ion channel-related intracellular signaling, and electrical remodeling in cardiomyopathies. The rapid progress in the basic research has led to applications of numerous new methods and strategies to clinical diagnoses and treatments. The efficacy of antiarrhythmic p...

Case Presentation No. 1 A 52-year-old man was referred for recurrent palpitations after 2 prior electrophysiology studies and ablations at an outside institution targeting right anteroseptal and left posterolateral accessory pathways (AP) for orthodromic reentrant tachycardia (ORT). Baseline ECG revealed sinus rhythm without preexcitation and an incomplete right bundle branch block. An ECG from...

Case Presentation A 60-year-old man with a history of remote myocarditis and residual mild left ventricular dysfunction presented with syncope. Before admission, the patient was not taking any regular medications. Medical history was otherwise unremarkable. Examination at presentation was unremarkable, apart from slow atrial fibrillation (AF). ECG on presentation demonstrated AF with slow ventr...
متن کاملTeaching rounds in cardiac electrophysiology.
The last 2 decades have seen major advances in clinical electrophysiology, particularly with ablation of complex arrhythmias and the use of implantable devices. Throughout, the main method by which trainees learn continues to be from direct interaction with practicing electrophysiologists. Most of us learned the basic rules for interpreting ECGs and electrograms during “teaching rounds,” where ...
