Abstract

It was shown that disturbances of the heart electrical stability in postinfarction cardiosclerosis manifested in a fall of the electrical threshold of the heart fibrillation and the development of extrasystoles during the vagus stimulation. These disturbances were effectively eliminated by administration of GABA in the brain.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.
