Despite recent advances in preventing sudden cardiac death (SCD) due to cardiac
arrhythmia, its incidence in the population at large has remained unacceptably high. Better …

The cardiac autonomic nervous system consists of 2 branches—the sympathetic and the
parasympathetic systems—that work in a delicately tuned, yet opposing fashion in the heart …

Cardiac arrhythmias are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, accounting
for 10% to 15% of all deaths. Although most arrhythmias are due to acquired heart disease …

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is complex and plays an important role in cardiac
arrhythmia pathogenesis. A deeper understanding of the anatomy and development of the …

Cardiac arrhythmias can follow disruption of the normal cellular electrophysiological
processes underlying excitable activity and their tissue propagation as coherent wavefronts …

In our opinion, one of the most important—and vexing—questions in clinical cardiology
today can be phrased quite simply:“Why did he die on Tuesday and not on Monday?” 1 …

The nervous system and cardiovascular system develop in concert and are functionally
interconnected in both health and disease. This white paper focuses on the cellular and …
