Recent years have witnessed a marked expansion in our knowledge of the physiology underlying SAD, both in the context of hereditary and acquired cardiac disorders. Thanks largely to work in genetically modified animals, the growth in our understanding of mechanisms underlying arrhythmia in the hereditary channelopathies has been particularly marked. Our growing knowledge of the fundamental mechanisms underlying SAD has so far failed to spur substantial developments in clinical practice. Despite a large body of work in both humans and animals, it remains impossible to confidently identify those at high risk of SAD, making pre-emptive therapy a challenge. What is more, with the thankful exception of the implantable cardioverter-defibrillators and pharmacological agents in very specific situations, there has been depressingly little progress in finding new and effective therapies. This Research Topic aims to go some way towards bridging the gap between advances in basic science and the development and delivery of new therapies. It brings together original research contributions and review articles from key opinion leaders in the field, focusing on the direct clinical implications of the basic science research now and in the future. 410 0$aFrontiers research topics. 606 $aSudden death 606 $aSudden death$xPrevention 606 $aCardiac arrest$xPathophysiology 610 $aventricular arrhythmia 610 $aInherited arrhythmia syndromes 610 $asudden death 610 $aarrhythmia mechanisms 610 $aChannelopathies 610 $aventricular tachycardia 610 $acardiac modelling 610 $aVentricular Fibrillation 610 $aAtrial Fibrillation 610 $aBrugada Syndrome 615 0$aSudden death. 615 0$aSudden death$xPrevention. 615 0$aCardiac arrest$xPathophysiology. 700 $aIan N.
