Abstract: RATIONALE: Heart failure (HF) following chronic myocardial infarction (MI) is associated with increased susceptibility for cardiac arrhythmias. However, the complex electrophysiological changes causing cardiac arrhythmias remain incompletely understood, especially in large animal models. METHOD: In… read more here.

Abstract: The electrophysiological properties underlying the automaticity of the guinea pig pulmonary vein myocardium were studied. About 30% of the isolated pulmonary vein tissue preparations showed spontaneous electrical activity, as shown by glass microelectrode recordings from… read more here.
