- Mechanism and pathogenesis of supraventricular and ventricular
arrhythmias;
- Pharmacologic treatment of cardiac arrhythmias;
- Non-pharmacologic treatments of cardiac arrhythmias:
external/internal electrical cardioversion, implantable
atrial/ventricular defibrillators, antitachycardia pacing, catheter
ablation of arrhythmia substrates;
- Cardiac resynchronization therapy for heart failure
patients;
- Pharmacoeconomic issues related to the systems for cardiac
pacing/defibrillation, atrial fibrillation, resynchronization
therapy in heart failure;
- Non-invasive evaluation of heart failure patients, with a
primary focus on candidates to implantable defibrillators and
cardiac resynchronization therapy.
- Management of failure and infections of cardiac implantable
devices.
- Telecardiology with implantable devices.
- Evaluation of proarrhythmic risk of non-antiarrhythmic
drugs.
