An Augmented Negative Force-Frequency Relationship and Slowed Mechanical Restitution Are Associated With Increased Susceptibility to Drug-Induced Torsade de Pointes Arrhythmias in the Chronic Atrioventricular Block Dog

Introduction: In the chronic AV-block (CAVB) dog model, structural, contractile, and electrical remodeling occur, which predispose the heart to dofetilide-induced Torsade de Pointes (TdP) arrhythmias. Previous studies found a relation between electrical remodeling and inducibility of TdP, while stru...
