  2. 1. T-vector and T-loop morphology analysis of ventricular repolarization in ischemic heart disease

    Author : Aigars Rubulis; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is responsible for about half of all cardiovascular deaths in the western world. Heterogeneous ventricular repolarization (VR) is a common denominator in the genesis of malignant ventricular arrhythmias responsible for SCD and the presence of coronary artery disease (CAD) is an aggravating factor.

  4. 2. Ventricular repolarization in the human heart : effects of pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions

    Author : Karolina J. Nowinski; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : QT interval; QT dispersion; PTCA; ischemia; T vector loop; AV junctional RF ablation; arrhythmia; sex hormones; hormone replacement therapy; cardiac memory ECG; signal-averaged ECG;

    Abstract : Ventricular arrhythmias is the main cause of sudden cardiac death. A prolonged repolarization might cause such arrhythmias, and an increased understanding about mechanisms is therefore important for their primary and secondary prevention. READ MORE

  5. 3. Cardiac memory studies in two human models

    Author : Liliane Wecke; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Cardiac memory; repolarization; pacing; WPW ablation;

    Abstract : Background: Cardiac memory is a form of electrical remodeling of the ventricles, where the T vector follows ("remembers') a previously altered QRS vector. On the electrocardiogram (ECG), it presents as T-wave inversions. READ MORE

  6. 4. Frequency Analysis of Sampled-Data Systems Applied to a Lime Slaking Process

    Author : Olof Lindgärde; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; periodic systems; intersample behavior; sampled-data system; lime slaking; multirate sampling; frequency analysis; tank reactor; product inhibited; modeling;

    Abstract : Single-rate and multirate sampled-data (SD) systems as well as linear time periodic (LTP) systems with discrete jumps are analyzed in the frequency domain. The focus of the analysis is both on rejection of disturbances and on robust stability properties. READ MORE

  7. 5. Porcine myocardial ischemia-reperfusion studies on cardioprotection, ventricular arrhythmia and electrophysiology

    Author : Jacob Odenstedt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : porcine; myocardial ischemia; ventricular arrhythmia; sudden cardiac death; electrophysiology; vectorcardiography; endocardial mapping; spinal cord stimulation;

    Abstract : Background: Coronary artery disease is the primary cause of death in adults in the industrialised world and ventricular fibrillation associated with myocardial ischemia is the main cause of sudden cardiac death. Restoration of blood flow and preservation of myocardial integrity throughout ischemia and reperfusion is essential to improve clinical outcome. READ MORE
