Overview
Professor Michel Haïssaguerre presents a major lecture at the French Academy of Sciences in 2015 on the electro-mechanical nature of the heart. This fundamental presentation explores the complex mechanisms that govern the functioning of the cardiovascular system, combining the principles of electrophysiology and cardiac mechanics.
This lecture is particularly important for understanding cardiac arrhythmias and innovations in cardiac electrophysiology. Michel Haïssaguerre presents the key concepts that led to the development of innovative techniques for diagnosing and treating heart rhythm disorders.
