Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a heart rhythm problem, or arrhythmia. If you have it, your heartbeat is faster and irregular at times. When this happens ...

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is a potentially lethal disease characterized by adrenergically mediated ventricular arrhythmias manifested especially in children and teenagers.

Polymorphic VT is a very dangerous type of arrhythmia, when your heart’s electrical activity changes from beat to beat. (Photo credit: iStock/Getty Images) Monomorphic ventricular ...

Panel B was recorded several minutes later and shows a typical episode of torsade de pointes: there is a four-beat run of polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, a pause, and a sinus beat with a long ...

In drug-resistant cases of monomorphic and polymorphic Purkinje-related ventricular tachycardias, catheter ablation is a very effective treatment. The specific transcriptional signatures and ...

The serious complication of QT interval prolongation is polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (Torsades de Pointes) which can be life threatening. Treatment is removing the cause. Polymorphic ...

Among potential clinical markers of disease severity and progression, only the duration of symptoms before the diagnosis and the number of ventricular ... of the polymorphism of the gene of ...

Long-QT syndrome (LQTS) is characterized by a prolonged QT interval on 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) that can progress to a polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT) known as torsades de pointes.

Current major projects in the lab focus on the molecular basis of inherited arrhythmia syndromes like catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS), ...

On the day of admission, the patient’s baseline QTc had been 365ms, but on this day it was 477ms; ECG also showed polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, suggesting torsades de pointes. Digoxin was ...

Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (CPVT) is a rare genetic ventricular tachycardia which can result in sudden cardiac death and/or syncope in young individuals with ...

SVT, on the other hand, is what experts define as three or more consecutive ventricular beats at a rate of over 100 beats per minute lasting more than 30 seconds. Catecholaminergic polymorphic VT ...
