Potential Proarrhythmic Effects of Biventricular Pacing [PDF]
Resynchronization therapy involving right ventricular endocardial and left ventricular epicardial pacing improves cardiac output, quality of life, and New York Heart Association functional class in patients with congestive heart failure. Although a great deal of attention has been directed at showing the mechanical benefits and in fine-tuning the ...

Biventricular pacing in heart failure: update on results from clinical trials
Biventricular pacing or resynchronisation therapy is a non-pharmacological therapy for patients with chronic heart failure. Since being originally described in 1994, biventricular pacing has become a subject of intense interest and investigation.

Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing Reverts Electromechanical Window Negativity to a Similar Extent as Biventricular Pacing. [PDF]
BiVP = biventricular pacing; CRT = cardiac resynchronization therapy; EMW = electromechanical window; LBBAP = left bundle branch area pacing; QAoC = Time interval from the onset of the QRS complex to the center of the aortic valve closure artifact; QT = QT interval measured by tangent method.

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,

Permanent biventricular ICD-implantation in a heart failure second re-do-CABG patient : a case report [PDF]
Biventricular pacing has been suggested in end-stage heart failure. We present a 59-year-old patient undergoing second re-do CABG (coronary artery bypass graft) and carotid artery endarterectomy. Ejection fraction was 15%, QRS-width 175 ms. Following the
