Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Sean P. Connors' research focuses on inherited cardiac arrhythmias and the application of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs). He has investigated the genetic basis of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), including the role of the TMEM43 gene in ARVC type 5, which he described as a fully penetrant, lethal arrhythmic disorder. His work has also examined the impact of ICD therapy on survival in patients with ARVD5 and the outcomes associated with specific ICD leads, such as the Sprint Fidelis and Fidelis leads, as reported by the Canadian Heart Rhythm Society Device Advisory Committee.

Connors has contributed to recommendations for genetic testing in inherited cardiac arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death, co-authoring a joint position paper for the Canadian Cardiovascular Society and Canadian Heart Rhythm Society. His research interests extend to stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation (AF), including patient and physician values regarding oral anticoagulation therapy. He leads a research group and has a scholarly profile indicated by an h-index of 20, over 114 publications, and more than 2,200 citations.
