Synopsis

Front-line research presented by international experts in the study ofdispersion of ventricular repolarization. This unique book is the first to offer an update of contemporary knowledgeof the dispersion of ventricular repolarization (DVR), from basic conceptsto the clinical application of recently obtained knowledge. World-renownedscientists and clinicians in the frontline of this research area haveauthored 20 chapters on a range of relevant issues, including: basic studies methodological aspects DVR and ventricular arrhythmias DVR and cardiac disorders DVR and antiarrhythmic treatment Growing amounts of recent evidence demonstrate that, in addition to othermechanisms already associated with malignant ventricular arrhythmias,ventricular myocardial cellular repolarization and DVR should be consideredas key factors in these arrhythmias, which are a major cause of death inpatients with different types of cardiac disease. This understanding hasdirectly impacted clinical practice by creating a platform for developmentof new treatment concepts. This book will interest Cardiologists, Electrophysiologists, and Basic andClinical Pharmacologists, and other clinicians interested in learning moreabout the subject.
