Potential new indication for ivabradine: treatment of a patient with congenital junctional ectopic tachycardia.

abstract：:The evidence that antiarrhythmic compounds that act by slowing conduction velocity increase mortality in patients with cardiac disease is now compelling. Emphasis is now shifting to agents that act by lengthening repolarization and have additional antiadrenergic properties. There is preliminary evidence that pure Clas...
