2022 14 Oct

An overview of the clinical evidence demonstrating the effectiveness of landiolol for the treatment of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter with heart failure and effective heart rate control during arrhythmias.   Supraventricular arrhythmias (SVTs) are common in post-operative and cardiac ICUs. SVTs increase the risk of death...Read more

Air-pollution-linked-to-arrhythmias

2022 24 May

Life-threatening arrhythmias are more common on days with highly polluted air, according to research presented at Heart Failure 2022, a scientific congress of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC). According to the World Health Organization (WHO), air pollution kills nearly 4.2 million people every year. One in five cardiovascular disease deaths...Read more

U-s-study-wearable-defibrillators-safe-for-children-with-arrhythmias

2018 27 Jun

A new analysis provides evidence on the safety and effectiveness of using wearable cardioverter defibrillators in children with ventricular heart rhythm disorders that put them at risk for sudden cardiac death. The findings are based on a review of clinical outcomes among all U.S. paediatric patients who wore wearable defibrillators between 2009...Read more

Predicting-arrhythmias-could-help-prevent-them

2015 02 Oct

Researchers at McGill University have discovered a way of predicting cardiac arrhythmias before they even occur. The finding could lead to an improved cardiac device that is designed to detect and prevent arrhythmias.  The researchers focused on a potentially fatal form of arrhythmia occurring in a condition, called the long QT syndrome, which runs...Read more

2015 11 Mar

A new mathematical model has been developed by a team of scientists at John Hopkins led by cardiologist and biomedical engineer Hiroshi Ashikaga, M.D, PhD. The model can measure and digitally map the beat-sustaining electrical flow between heart cells. The approach has been described in the Journal of the Royal Society Interface. The team believes...Read more
