    Author: Sette A, Martino A, Lioy E, Calò L.
    Journal: J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol; 2010 Jul; 21(7):815-7. PubMed ID: 20233274.
    Abstract:
    We present a case of a 49-year-old man with inappropriate sinus tachycardia and ventricular dysfunction. The conventional treatment (ace-inhibitor and beta-blockers) was not well tolerated by the patient, so Ivabradine, a specific inhibitor of If current in the sinus node, was started. After 3 months of using this medication, we observed an improvement of ejection fraction and quality of life.
