Pulse forty-four, with some irregularity in the atrial and ventricular rhythms.

In 2001, Orlaam was removed from the European market due to reports of life threatening ventricular rhythm disorders.

Troponins are also increased in patients with heart failure, where they also predict mortality and ventricular rhythm abnormalities.

The ventricular escape beat follows a long pause in ventricular rhythm and acts to prevent cardiac arrest.

By passing through the heart, it distorts normal ventricular rhythm into an ineffective wormlike wriggling called fibrillation, which has the same effect as cardiac arrest.

"A note on the simultaneous occurrence of sinus and ventricular rhythm in man", Lewis T, Macnalty AS, J Physiol.

Remote magnetic navigation is recognized as an important method for delivery of ablation therapy for these patients due to the ability of the flexible magnetic catheter to carefully map the diseased tissue without inadvertently inducing abnormal ventricular rhythms.

Digoxin (a mildly positive inotrope and negative chronotrope), once used as first-line therapy, is now reserved for control of ventricular rhythm in patients with atrial fibrillation; or where adequate control is not achieved with an ACEI, a beta blocker and a loop diuretic.
