title: [The development of cardiac function and its relation to metabolism during the perinatal period].
abstract: Several aspects of heart development are reviewed such as development of excitability and electrical and mechanical activity of the heart. Special emphasis is made upon metabolic changes during heart development and its possible consequences on electrical and mechanical activity.
