چکیده
Vaidyamadham is one of the famous Ashthavaidya families in Kerala, the only extant family belonging to the Bharadwajiya group. The family is believed to have been invited to Kerala as Shalavaidyas about 1700 years ago to conduct Yajnas, by none other than the famous Mezhathole Agnihotri, who conducted 99 Somayagas to re-establish the Vedic Karma and Yagnya culture of India. Shalavaidya is a status conferred on a family of physicians responsible for the health of Yagnya participants. Many past family members were Rajvaidyas (Royal Physicians) to Kerala’s reigning families. Vaidyamadham Cheriya Narayanan Namboodiri’s father and grandfather were both legendary, and consulted by royalty. Even today, members of state and central governments, political leaders, and famous personalities from every walk of life are in touch with the family either for consultation or for treatment. Vaidyamadham Cheriya Narayanan Namboodiri is the present chief Vaidya, or physician, in the family.

Mapping for the Target Sites of Ablation in Post-infarction Ventricular Tachycardia- Is Sinus Rhythm Sufficient?
The long road to success with radiofrequency ablation for scar-related ventricular tachycardia (VT) has taken the electrophysiologists down many unexpected paths in the last two decades. During this period, the progress in defining the pathological circuits involved in genesis of this complex tachyarrhythmia has undoubtedly improved the ablation outcome. However, empiricism still prevails as to...

Mahaim Fiber tachycardia characteristically causes a wide QRS tachycardia with left bundle branch morphology and left axis deviation, especially in young patients, having no structural heart disease. Mahaim fiber automaticity further cements the proposition of Mahaim fiber, due to its Atrioventricular (AV) node like property, being called as an ectopic AV node.

Lower loop re-entry (LLR) flutter is a rare type of atypical right atrial flutter. Most of the reported cases occurred in association with typical flutter patterns as a transient arrhythmia. Our case is unique in the fact the LLR was sustained and persisted independently.
متن کاملBradycardia-induced Torsade de Pointes – An arrhythmia Less Understood
Torsade de pointes (TdP) denotes a polymorphic ventricular tachycardia that is associated with prolonged QT interval at baseline, and is potentially life-threatening. Though it is well established that the genesis of TdP is closely linked to the transmural dispersion of repolarisation (TDR), the cellular and electrophysiological milieu predisposing to torsadogenesis in many conditions is not co...
