Biventricular pacing in paced patients with normal hearts [PDF]

Europace, 2009
Right ventricular apical (RVA) stimulation, although beneficial in the treatment of symptomatic bradycardia, has proven detrimental in a substantial percentage of pacemaker recipients, leading to iatrogenic deterioration of left ventricular structure and function.

Suboptimal biventricular pacing. What is the mechanism?

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2019
Suboptimal biventricular pacing has deleterious effects on patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy. We describe a unique case of suboptimal biventricular pacing and our approach to overcome it.

Endocardial biventricular pacing for chronic heart failure patients: Effect on transmural dispersion of repolarization

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2019
Background and Aim Conventional epicardial cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) can cause fatal arrhythmia associated with increased transmural dispersion of repolarization (TDR).

Device rounds: T-wave oversensing: A cause of loss of cardiac resynchronization therapy

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2016
A CRT-D patient presented with loss of biventricular pacing associated with heart failure symptoms. The electrocardiogram showed sinus rhythm with alternating wide unpaced and narrower paced QRS complexes.

An analysis of defibrillation and cardiac resynchronization therapy strategies in patients with failing systemic right ventricles [PDF]

, 2007
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 52-56).The expanding application of cardiac resynchronization (CRT) and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy (lCD) to include patients with congenital heart disease requires careful evaluation of ...

Prominent differences in left ventricular performance and myocardial properties between right ventricular and left ventricular-based pacing modes in rats

Scientific Reports, 2017
Biventricular pacing is an important modality to improve left ventricular (LV) synchronization and long-term function. However, the biological effects of this treatment are far from being elucidated and existing animal models are limited and demanding ...

Echo-driven V-V optimization determines clinical improvement in non responders to cardiac resynchronization treatment

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2006
Echocardiography plays an integral role in the detection of mechanical dyssynchrony in patients with congestive heart failure and in predicting beneficial response to cardiac resynchronization treatment.

Biventricular pacing--early experience [PDF]

, 2001
INTRODUCTION: Biventricular pacing has been studied for the treatment of chronic heart failure (CHF). This technique seems to be able to improve symptoms and exercise tolerance, in patients with advanced CHF and prolonged QRS duration.

TEE-guided left ventricular epicardial pacing lead placement for cardiac resynchronization therapy

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2012
Biventricular pacing has demonstrated improvement in cardiac functions in treating congestive cardiac failure patients. Recent trials have proven the clinical and functional benefits of cardiac resynchronization therapy in severe heart failure and ...

Biventricular pacing diminishes the need for implantable cardioverter defibrillator therapy [PDF]

, 2000
OBJECTIVESWe sought to test the postulate that biventricular pacing diminishes the need for appropriate tachycardia therapy. We reviewed the frequency of therapy in patients, serving as their own controls, who were enrolled in the Ventak CHF (congestive ...
