INJURY to the invisible subendocardial conduction system during surgical closure of congenital defects in the ventricular septum is an uncommon but extremely grave complication. 1,2 Impalement of ...

NEW ORLEANS -- Among patients with heart failure, conduction system pacing-guided cardiac resynchronization therapy was associated with improvements in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ...

THE mode of propagation of the wave of contraction in the wall of the heart was thought, up to fifty years ago, to take place along nerve trunks. Gaskell was the first (1882) to show definitely that ...

Figure 1: Measurement of gene transfer efficacy. Figure 2: Reduction in heart rate during atrial fibrillation after Gα i2 gene transfer. This study is the first report of intracoronary site-specific ...

New research highlights postnatal regeneration limits and pathological remodeling of the cardiac conduction system after myocardial infarction, uncovering mechanisms behind clinical arrhythmogenesis ...

Other hot topics included new data on LAAO and conduction-system pacing, plus the go-ahead for ablation in ASCs.

During a severe heart attack many heart muscle cells die and are replaced by scar tissue to stabilize the heart wall. Connective tissue cells, known as fibroblasts (FB), are the dominant cell type in ...

Medtronic "Conduction System Pacing" Expanded Indication Now Includes Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing in Addition to His-Bundle Pacing for Patients with Slow Heart Rates Medtronic is the first and only ...
