🗓️27/09 at 8:30am 📍C2.1

Explore the latest research, innovations, and treatment strategies for inherited heart rhythm disorders. Stay ahead of the curve and learn how we can better manage and understand these life-impacting syndromes. Let's keep hearts beating strong! 💓 #ArrhythmiaAwareness #HeartHealth #InheritedSyndromes #Cardiology

[prof Jacob Tfelt-Hansen @JacobTfelt]

🚩🚩Individuals with diabetes are at increased risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) at all ages!
🚩🚩Substantial part of the life expectancy reduction can be attributed to SCD in people with types 1 and 2 diabetes.

Happy to see our recent paper published in #Europace

#SCN5A mutations can cause pro-arrhythmic #cardiac structural alterations with age but this is dependent on genetic background

Congrats @GA_Marchal and co-authors!

@dlypourlis @BodeEnsa @SSharmacardio @MichaelPapadak2 @Chiara_Scrocco @DrMaiteTome @TheBHF @CRY_UK Definitely not due to an arrhythmia syndrome but indicating the polygenic heritability for sodium channel blocker response and depolarisation reserve in the RVOT ie Brugada syndrome. @rafik_tadros @cbezzina1 @JulienBar4

3 out of 100 healthy people with no heart disease or family history of sudden death had a positive ajmaline result - import implications for when to do it! @JacobTfelt @MJAckermanMDPhD @SheppardNoelle @cbezzina1 @rafik_tadros @AndrewKrahnMD
