Funded Activity Summary

Atrial fibrillation is the most frequently encountered heart rhythm disorder. However, mechanisms underlying the progressive nature of this disease remain poorly understood. This study aims to characterize the 3-D electrical dissociation and its relation to pathological changes in conditions predisposing to atrial fibrillation. This knowledge will facilitate the development of individualized, substrate-oriented pharmacological treatment and targeted therapeutic procedures for atrial fibrillation.
