Previously considered to be separate disease entities, the acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are somewhat arbitrarily divided on the basis of their electrocardiographic manifestations and are now thought to arise from a common disease process. Based on a number of factors, the severity of the ACS and, consequently, their attendant clinical risk may vary. The management of patients with ACS should…

Idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (formerly referred to as primary pulmonary hypertension) is an uncommon yet progressively fatal disease defined by the presence of mean pulmonary artery pressure greater than 25mmHg at rest or greater than 30mmHg with exercise as tested by right heart catheterization in the absence of other etiologies for pulmonary hypertension. Across several studied…

Introduction
Strictly speaking, there are no arrhythmias that are specific to women. However, as with most diseases, the diagnosis of arrhythmias presents unique challenges when applied to women. Women have distinct symptoms, different etiologies and incidences of arrhythmias, and even differing outcomes compared with men.
This article will discuss both the benign and more malignant arrhythmias…
