Reduced Ventricular Arrhythmogeneity and Increased Electrical Complexity in Normal Exercised Rats.

The mechanisms whereby aerobic training reduces the occurrence of sudden cardiac death in humans are not clear. We test the hypothesis that exercise-induced increased resistance to ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation (VT/VF) involve an intrinsic remodeling in healthy hearts.Thirty rats were div...
