Repair of Junctional Atrioventricular Conduction and Impulse Formation
Background: To bypass hardware-related complication there have been substantial efforts to create biological pacemakers. Effective strategies have been identified and are now being refined for delivery of long-term function and clinical application. Yet, currently developed biological pacemakers only provide pacing to atrium or ventricle thereby aiming at ~20% of pacemaker patients. To unleash the full potential of biological pacing, targeting virtually every pacemaker patient, effective repair of atrio-ventricular (AV) conduction is crucial. With the arrival of advanced stem cell-based therapies, now is the time to meet this important challenge. Objective: To develop a stem cell-based…
