Abstract | BACKGROUND:
Ivabradine, an agent lowering the heart rate, acting as a funny current (If) specific inhibitor, is responsible for the sinoatrial node's spontaneous depolarization. According to current guidelines, it is indicated in specific heart failure populations and as a second-line treatment option to improve angina in chronic coronary syndromes. REVIEW OF LITERATURE: CONCLUSIONS: Randomized clinical trials are needed to elucidate the role of ivabradine in reducing the burden of ventricular arrhythmias in various clinical settings.
