Strategies to Reduce Heart Failure Hospitalizations and Readmissions: How Low Can We Go?
It is estimated that more than one million heart failure hospitalizations occur each year. Systolic heart failure and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction contribute equally to heart failure hospitalizations.

The combination of cardiac resynchronization therapy and pulmonary artery banding was associated with substantial improvement in advanced heart failure infants with left ventricular dilated cardiomyopathy and left bundle branch block. Most patients exhibited marked improvement in clinical status and ventricular function, along with a reduction in QRS ...

ABSTRACT Background Cardiac amyloidosis is commonly associated with cardiac conduction disease. We sought to determine the prevalence of advanced conduction disease requiring a pacemaker in patients with known cardiac amyloidosis to evaluate current screening practices among patients receiving pacemakers.

Conduction system pacing is widely used as an alternative to right ventricular pacing and, in some cases, as an alternative to biventricular pacing for cardiac resynchronization therapy. Proper programming of an implantable electronic device is essential

ABSTRACT Background Quadripolar left ventricular (LV) epicardial leads capable of multipoint pacing (MPP) may have an advantage over conventional bipolar leads for delivering cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) by stimulating the lateral LV wall from two distinct locations simultaneously.

Effective cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) requires an accurate atrio-biventricular pacing system. The innovative Quartet lead is a quadripolar, over-the-wire left ventricular lead with four electrodes and has recently been designed to provide ...

Biventricular Pacing during Cardiac Operations
Biventricular pacing (resynchronization therapy) improves the duration and quality of life in a subset of patients with congestive heart failure, but this technique has received little attention in the cardiac surgery literature. This report presents some preliminary ideas about its rationale and technique, and some likely indications for this ...

New Insights into Pacing Induced Cardiomyopathy
Pacing induced cardiomyopathy (PICM) can occur as a complication due to pacing the right ventricle. Its precise definition varies across different studies, leading to uncertainty as to the best approach for managing this entity. More than 10% of patients

Conduction system pacing: What is new in 2025 Clinical Consensus Statement
Conduction system pacing (CSP), which includes His bundle pacing (HBP) and left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP), is increasingly recognized as a physiological and clinically effective alternative to conventional right ventricular pacing (RVP) and ...
