Chronic myocardial infarction promotes atrial action potential alternans, afterdepolarizations, and fibrillation

AIMS: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is increased in patients with heart failure resulting from myocardial infarction (MI). We aimed to determine the effects of chronic ventricular MI in rabbits on the susceptibility to AF, and underlying atrial electrophysiological and Ca(2+)-handling mechanisms. METHODS...
