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

Researchers have produced the most detailed and comprehensive human Heart Cell Atlas to date, including the specialized tissue of the cardiac conduction system -- where the heartbeat originates. In a ...

When patients with congenital heart issues have an operation, surgeons have to proceed with an "eye of faith" as they work around conduction tissue—a network of cells and electrical signals that ...

In patients with systemic sclerosis, specific gastrointestinal manifestations are linked to distinct cardiac complications, a recent study shows.

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

Intensive blood pressure control has been suggested to reduce the risk of adverse cardiovascular events. However, the effect of intensive blood pressure control on cardiac conduction system disease ...

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 ...

The cardiac conduction system (CCS) consists of specialized cardiomyocytes that generate and transmit the electrical signals required for rhythmic contraction of the heart. The CCS is ...

Heart conduction disorders can often lead to serious or fatal complications including complete heart block or heart failure. Left ventricular conduction disease occurs when there is an electrical ...

ECG aberrancy means the heartbeat does not follow the usual conduction system of the heart. Atrial fibrillation with ECG aberrancy means people have an irregular heart rhythm with abnormal conduction.
