Decade in review--arrhythmias: Cardiac fibrillation--challenges and evolving solutions

Stanley Nattel. Nat Rev Cardiol. 2014 Nov.

Abstract

Cardiac rhythm disorders, or 'arrhythmias', are major sources of morbidity and mortality, and have been challenging to treat because classic pharmacological therapies are often ineffective and sometimes dangerous. In the past decade, groundbreaking developments have revolutionized the management of arrhythmias and prepared the groundwork for new advances in the future.
