What Is WPW Syndrome?

What Is Atrioventricular Nodal Reentry Tachycardia (AVNRT)?
læs mere: What Is Atrioventricular Nodal Reentry Tachycardia (AVNRT)?AVNRT: “AtrioVentricular Nodal Re-entry Tachycardia”. As with most forms of arrhythmias the heart rhythm of AVNRT patients often moves out of control in a type of carousel movement.
How Pacemakers Treat Heart Failure
læs mere: How Pacemakers Treat Heart FailureWhen a heart’s ability to pump is impaired, it can be necessary to implant a special type of pacemaker that can stimulate both the right and left ventricles simultaneously.
What Is An ICD?
læs mere: What Is An ICD?A cardiac arrest is a life-threatening arrhythmia in which the heart’s pumping function stops – and thus no blood comes out to the body’s organs
