Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (CPVT) is a rare genetic ventricular tachycardia which can result in sudden cardiac death and/or syncope in young individuals with ...

Ventricular tachycardia should be described by type (monomorphic or polymorphic), duration (sustained or non-sustained) and heart rate — i.e. monomorphic VT non-sustained at a heart rate of 220 ...

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

The mechanism ... with a ventricular BCL of 400 msec. Permanent ventricular pacing shortened the ventricular effective refractory period in each infant and effectively suppressed polymorphic ...

The objective of this study was to analyze the mechanisms ... onset of ventricular tachyarrhythmias, Taylor et al. [38] evaluated 260 arrhythmia episodes among 90 patients. Both polymorphic ...

Current major projects in the lab focus on the molecular basis of inherited arrhythmia syndromes like catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), congenital ... into understanding ...

Specific areas of interest include the mechanisms and treatment of atrial fibrillation ... including Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome, Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia, long QT ...
