Early afterdepolarizations promote transmural reentry in ischemic human ventricles with reduced repolarization reserve.
Acute ischemia is a major cause of sudden arrhythmic death, further promoted by potassium current blockers. Macro-reentry around the ischemic region and early afterdepolarizations (EADs) caused by electrotonic current have been suggested as potential mechanisms in animal and isolated cell studies. H...
