Electrophysiological Remodeling in Heart Failure Dyssynchrony vs. Resynchronization

The electrophysiological hallmark of cells and tissues isolated from failing hearts is prolongation of action potential duration (APD) and conduction slowing. In human studies and a number of animal models of heart failure, functional downregulation of K currents and alterations in depolarizing Na a...
