Fig. 1From: Longitudinal study of electrical, functional and structural remodelling in an equine model of atrial fibrillationStudy design. Study start at day 0, three weeks after pacemaker implantation. Baseline measurements were performed in sinus rhythm (baseline SR) before atrial fibrillation (AF) induction and 24 h after pacing was initiated (day 1, baseline AF). Pacing continued until self-sustained AF. Experimental protocol included electrocardiography (ECG), echocardiography, atrial fibrillatory rate recordings (AF group) and flecainide administration. Cardiac tissue was harvested at the end of the studyBack to article page
