MVP is characterized on echocardiography by an abnormal systolic displacement of mitral valve leaflets into left atrium (LA) ≥ 2 mm above the mitral annulus. We described a clinical case of…
The relationship between mean daily heart rate and the incidence of cardiac arrhythmias in patients with wearable cardiac defibrillator
