Complex Biventricular Pacing - A Case Series
It is established that cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) reduces mortality and hospitalisation and improves functional class in patients with NYHA class 3-4 heart failure, an ejection fraction of ≤ 35% and a QRS duration of ≥ 120ms.

Background Device-based algorithms offer the potential for automated optimization of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), but the process for accepting them into clinical use is currently still ad-hoc, rather than based on pre-clinical and clinical ...

Background The hemodynamic effects of cardiac resynchronization therapy in patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are uncharacterized. We aimed to quantify the hemodynamic effects of different ventricular pacing configurations in patients ...

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is correlated with a poor biventricular pacing and inadequate response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Biventricular pacing improvement can be achieved by conducting the atrioventricular junction ablation (

QRS widening has important clinical and prognostic implications in patients with chronic heart failure. Ventricular conduction abnormalities such as a left bundle branch block, cause ventricular dysynchrony and several hemodynamic disadvantages. The presence of ventricular dysynchrony results in abnormal wall motion, impaired ventricular contractility,

A Case with no Hemodynamic Benefit from Right Ventricular Anodal Capture during Biventricular Pacing
This case report describes a patient with a biventricular pacing system in whom right ventricular anodal capture had no hemodynamic benefit. While controlling the ventricular output, three morphologies of the paced QRS complex were obtained: right ...

Background: Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) is a novel pacing modality with stable pacing parameters and a narrow-paced QRS duration. We compared heart failure (HF) hospitalization events and echocardiographic measures between LBBAP and right ...

The patient was a 64-year-old man with chronic atrial fibrillation with bradycardia. Left ventricular ejection fraction was 34%. He was treated with biventricular pacing. Heart failure improved from NYHA class III to II.

We describe a patient with torsades de pointes (TdP) who was implanted with cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D). At the time of CRT-D implantation, left ventricular (LV) epicardial pacing exacerbated TdPs and developed into electrical

Cardiac dyssynchrony is the proposed mechanism for pacemaker-induced cardiomyopathy, which can be prevented by biventricular pacing. Left bundle branch pacing and His bundle pacing are novel interventions that imitate the natural conduction of the heart ...
