Abstract

The mechanism of sudden cardiac death in patients with heart failure (HF) is uncertain. Both electrical instability and structural remodelling could be factors that lead to fatal arrhythmias. We sought to analyse the expression of the sodium (SCN5A) and potassium (KCND3) channels as well as the fibrosis content in the ventricles of human HF and of non-diseased hearts under different post-mortem intervals.
