Transmembrane potential properties at the core of functional reentrant wave fronts in isolated canine right atria.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Although type B aortic dissection has been treated with beta blockers to lower the arterial blood pressure (BP), there has been little evidences about reduction in heart rate (HR). We assessed whether tight HR control improved the outcome of medical treatment in patients with aortic dissection. METHODS AND ...
