Dedication to Pablo Ambrosio Chiale The authors of this book want to dedicate this work to the memory of one of our most brilliant colleagues and an amazing human being. Pablo A. Chiale was one of the most notorious members of the so-called “Rosenbaum’s school of Electrocardiology”. Dr. Chiale’s scientific production is extensive and difficult to quote completely, but he described the electrophysiological properties of accessory pathways, the autoimmune condition of Chagas’ disease, the pathophysiology of inappropriate sinus tachycardia, lidocaine-sensitive atrial tachycardias, electrotonic modulation of cardiac repolarization and more recently, a maneuver to unmask Brugada patterns in patients with advanced right bundle branch block; a maneuver that is known today as “Chiale’s maneuver”. Dr Chiale was a passionate individual who made his life count to the last day. His legacy, undoubtedly, subsists in his disciples around the world.
We had the fortune to learn from Pablo; and this book is dedicated to the “Master” who helped us to navigate through this world full of mysteries and treasures.
