Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Electrophysiology
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • Syncope on exertion and heart block can indicate underlying cardiac arrhythmias.
  • Non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) poses diagnostic challenges, especially when not provoked by standard electrophysiology testing.
