What research is currently being carried out into RAS?
One of the aims of the group is to promote research. The recent research project of fitting pacemakers into children with RAS has been completed. A copy of the published paper is available from the support group. The group raised funds to purchase King of Hearts monitors. These monitors, worn by the person for a period of time, will provide essential information on the activity of the heart during a natural attack. We hope the information generated will be used for research. We are also commissioning a medical survey of all our members, which will provide valuable data to aid research. It is essential to obtain the information from as many people with RAS as possible so please take time to fill in the survey, if you have not already done so.
