Successful implantation of a biventricular pacing and defibrillator device via a persistent left superior vena cava [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2013
Introduction. Persistent left superior vena cava is the most common thoracic venous abnormality which is usually asymptomatic, found incidentally during pacemaker implantation.

Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing vs. Right Ventricular Pacing for Atrioventricular Block

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
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 ...

Effects of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy on the Arrhythmic Substrate in a Patient with Long QT and Torsades de pointes

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2011
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

A network meta-analysis and systematic review of change in QRS duration after left bundle branch pacing, His bundle pacing, biventricular pacing, or right ventricular pacing in patients requiring permanent pacemaker

Scientific Reports, 2021
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 ...

Role of cardiac resynchronization therapy in the development of new-onset atrial fibrillation: A single-center prospective study. [PDF]

, 2012
Albeit several studies examined the association between cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and atrial fibrillation (AF) in heart failure (HF), results are still unclear and quite conflicting.

Comparison of left ventricular and biventricular pacing: Rationale and clinical implications

Anatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2019
Cardiac resynchronization therapy constitutes a cornerstone in advanced heart failure treatment, when there is evidence of dyssynchrony, especially by electrocardiography.

Evidence that conflict regarding size of haemodynamic response to interventricular delay optimization of cardiac resynchronization therapy may arise from differences in how atrioventricular delay is kept constant. [PDF]

, 2014
Aims: Whether adjusting interventricular (VV) delay changes haemodynamic efficacy of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is controversial, with conflicting results.

Clinical Outcomes After Ablation of the AV Junction in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation: Impact of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundPatients with atrial fibrillation (AF) often undergo AV junction ablation (AVJA) and pacemaker implantation. Right ventricular (RV) pacing contributes to increased risk of heart failure (HF), which may be mitigated by biventricular pacing.

Effects of Epicardial and Endocardial Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy on Coronary Flow: Insights From Wave Intensity Analysis

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2015
Background The increase in global coronary flow seen with conventional biventricular pacing is mediated by an increase in the dominant backward expansion wave (BEW).
