Cardiac electrophysiological adaptations in the equine athlete-Restitution analysis of electrocardiographic features.

Exercising horses uniquely accommodate 7-8-fold increases in heart rate (HR). The present experiments for the first time analysed the related adaptations in action potential (AP) restitution properties recorded by in vivo telemetric electrocardiography from Thoroughbred horses. The horses were subje...
