This book represents a cross–fertilization of clinical research among those studying VF from different perspectives and with a variety of tools. In 10 main sections comprising 25 chapters, it defines the current knowledge of pediatric VF from the epidemiological, physiological, and clinical perspectives. It brings together examinations of the development factors at the molecular, cellular, and pathophysiological and clinical perspectives. It brings together examinations of the developmental factors at the molecular, cellular and pathophysiological level associated with VF, and identifies questions about the clinical research and treatment of this condition that must be answered in order to save children's lives. This unique collection of chapters will interest cardiologists, pediatricians and electrophysiologists who wish to broaden their knowledge of this area. ISBN - 9780879934521
