Feasibility of physiological pacing rate in cardiac resynchronization therapy
ESC Heart Failure, 2023 Aims Although cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) improves functional capacity in heart failure patients, a blunted heart rate (HR) response remains after treatment.

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022 Background: Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in the European Union and worldwide. Constant improvement in cardiac care is leading to an increased number of patients with heart failure, which is a challenging condition in terms of

Advances in Physiological Cardiac Stimulation
Journal of Cardiac Arrhythmias, 2021 Advances in cardiac stimulation demonstrate that bradyarrhythmia treatments go beyond heart rate control. The concern with the ventricular stimulation site and, consequently, with the maintenance of intraventricular synchrony has become routine in most ...

Enhancing longevity of pacemakers through reprogramming. Underutilization and cost-effectiveness
Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2001 OBJECTIVE: This study was performed to observe the number of pacemakers that had never been reprogrammed after implantation, and the effect of optimised output programming on estimated longevity of pulse generators in patients with pacemaker METHODS ...

Kidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2017 Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is highly common, and is most frequently observed in individuals with hypertension and structural cardiac disease. Sympathetic hyperactivity plays a fundamental role in the progression, maintenance and aggravation of ...
