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

Currently, there are only rough anatomical landmarks to help cardiac surgeons prevent accidental damage to the cardiac conduction system (CCS) – a network of cells that send signals to the heart to ...

New research in Sweden has produced a "blueprint" revealing how the human heart is built during prenatal development. It offers insights that could lead to improved prenatal care and new treatments ...

Following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), disturbances in the heart's electrical conduction system can make a ...

Discordant results from two trials comparing conduction system pacing with biventricular pacing for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) leave open the question of whether conduction system pacing ...

Patients with atrioventricular (AV) block who don’t have an indication for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) do better when treated with conduction-system pacing versus right ventricular septal ...

Sidra Medicine Marks World Heart Day With Complex Congenital Heart Surgery Milestone. In recognition of World Heart Day, Sidra Medicine is highlighting a recent milestone in complex congenital heart ...

Cardiac physiologic pacing, also known as cardiac resynchronization therapy, is indicated in patients with heart failure, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 50% or less, and either a ...

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

For the past two decades, catheter ablation stole most of the excitement in electrophysiology. Cardiac pacing was seen as necessary but boring. His-bundle pacing earned only modest attention. But at ...
