Investigations of electrophysiological mechanisms related to myocardial ischaemia in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: implications for arrhythmic risk, ECG diagnosis, and antiarrhythmic therapy

<p>Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a leading cause of sudden cardiac death in the young. Acute myocardial ischaemia (a sudden myocardial blood supply/demand mismatch) and pre-existing chronic ionic remodelling (which causes slowed cellular repolarisation) are acknowledged as two key contr...
