Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is the most common form of irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia). People with AFib have many treatment options, including medications and medical procedures. However ...

Such techniques can be automatically applied using implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and offer the potential for painless termination of ventricular tachycardia (VT). Reduction in ...

Recent work from our laboratory characterized the mechanism underlying the different types of electrograms using high density mapping (Rhythmia, Boston Scientific) during atrial tachycardia. Frontera ...

Binge drinking and possibly, moderate alcohol intake, may trigger atrial fibrillation. Caffeine intake does not appear to be a trigger; although, some doctors still recommend that patients with atrial ...

Aberrant activation of the sympathetic nervous system can induce heterogeneous changes with arrhythmogenic potential which can result in atrial tachycardia, atrial tachyarrhythmias and atrial ...
