ST-elevation during biventricular pacing [PDF]

Europace, 2011
Pacemakers devaluate the accuracy of the electrocardiogram (ECG) for the diagnosis of myocardial ischaemia. We present the case of a 53-year-old man with ischaemic cardiomyopathy and acute chest pain. Besides biventricular pacing, new ST-segment elevations were present leading to the diagnosis of myocardial infarction.

Terapêutica de Ressincronização Cardíaca e Efeito Pró-Arrítmico: um Problema que Deve Ser Lembrado [PDF]

, 2014
The demonstrated benefits of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in reducing mortality and hospitalizations for heart failure, improving NYHA functional class and inducing reverse remodeling have led to its increasing use in clinical practice ...

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 ...

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.

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.

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 ...

Left ventricular pacing vector selection by novel echo-particle imaging velocimetry analysis for optimization of quadripolar cardiac resynchronization device: A case report [PDF]

, 2016
Background: The availability of pacing configurations offered by quadripolar left ventricular leads could improve patients\u2019 response to cardiac resynchronization therapy; however, the selection of an optimal setting remains a challenge.

Conduction system pacing on track to replace CRT? Review of current evidence and prospects of conduction system pacing

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Conduction system pacing (CSP) has been emerging over the last decade as a pacing option instead of conventional right ventricular (RV) pacing and biventricular (BiV) pacing.

Monitoring of CRT-D devices during radiation therapy in vitro [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Using of active cardiac medical devices increases steadily. In Europe, there were 183 implants of ICD and 944 implants of PM, 119 of biventricular ICD and 41 of biventricular PM, all per million inhabitants in 2014. Healthcare environments,

Biventricular pacing in heart failure: update on results from clinical trials

Current Controlled Trials in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2001
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.
