Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is an inherited cardiomyopathy characterised by progressive replacement of the ventricular myocardium by fibrofatty tissue.1 Patients with the disease are predisposed to ventricular arrhythmias, heart failure and sudden cardiac death. Pathophysiology ARVC has a strong genetic basis with most disease variants displaying an autosomal dominant… View more

Heart Failure
Author(s): Khang-Li Looi , Anthony SL Tang , Sharad Agarwal Added: 3 years ago
Heart failure (HF) is a growing and major health burden in western countries. The prevalence of HF is estimated at 1–2 % in the western world, and the incidence approaches 5–10 per 1,000 persons per year.1Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) has been shown in multiplestudies to improve HF symptoms, quality of life and improve survivals.2–6The two landmark studies, Comparison of Medical Therapy… View more

Historical Precedents Brugada syndrome (BrS) was first described more than 25 years ago as a clinical entity in people resuscitated from sudden cardiac death due to documented VF.1 The original 1992 case series described eight patients without apparent structural heart disease who all had VF associated with persistent coved ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads.1 In 1996 this… View more

Electrophysiology & Arrhythmia
Author(s): Juan Sieira , Pedro Brugada Added: 3 years ago
Brugada syndrome (BS) is an inherited disease characterised by coved-type ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads (V1–V3) and an increased risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in the absence of structural heart disease.1 It typically affects otherwise healthy individuals in their forties.2 SCD is the most dramatic presentation, but many patients are asymptomatic at the time of diagnosis… View more

Pacing and Defibrillators in Complex Congenital Heart Disease
Author(s): Henry Chubb , Mark O’Neill , Eric Rosenthal Added: 3 years ago
Device therapy is increasingly employed in the management of complex congenital heart disease (CHD). Bradycardias, most often related to sinus nodal dysfunction (SND) or atrioventricular nodal (AVN) block, may necessitate the implantation of pacing devices, while malignant arrhythmias may be treated by appropriate use of implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs). However, there is a complex… View more

Electrophysiology’s Identity Crisis: What our Clinical Trials Do and Do Not Say About Us
Author(s): David J Callans , Matthew Reynolds , Peter J Zimetbaum Added: 3 years ago
There was a joke years ago that no one understood electrophysiologists, or even wanted to, and that suited us just fine. We were happy to be isolated in our labs working on largely academic problems. Fast forward to now, and the monumental advances in our ability to map and ablate arrhythmias and in new strategies for implantable device therapy have thrust us into the realm of high-volume… View more
