Lineages of the Cardiac Conduction System [PDF]
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2017 The cardiac conduction system (CCS) initiates and coordinately propagates the electrical impulse to orchestrate the heartbeat. It consists of a set of interconnected components with shared properties.

Conduction System Pacing for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023 Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) via biventricular pacing (BiVP-CRT) is considered a mainstay treatment for symptomatic heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction and wide QRS. However, up to one-third of patients receiving BiVP-CRT are

Conduction System Pacing for Cardiac Resynchronisation
Arrhythmia & Electrophysiology Review, 2021 Conduction system pacing (CSP) is a technique of pacing that involves implantation of permanent pacing leads along different sites of the cardiac conduction system and includes His bundle pacing and left bundle branch pacing. There is an emerging role for CSP to achieve cardiac resynchronisation in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection ...

The Cardiac Conduction System [PDF]
Circulation, 2011 The human heart beats 2.5 billion times during a normal lifespan, a feat accomplished by cells of the cardiac conduction system (CCS). The functional components of the CCS can be broadly divided into the impulse-generating nodes and the impulse-propagating His-Purkinje system.

Development of the Cardiac Conduction System. [PDF]
Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol, 2020 The cardiac conduction system initiates and propagates each heartbeat. Specialized conducting cells are a well-conserved phenomenon across vertebrate evolution, although mammalian and avian species harbor specific components unique to organisms with four-chamber hearts.

Left Bundle Branch Pacing in Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis and Alternating Bundle Branch Block
JACC: Case Reports, 2020 Progressive conduction system disease affects patients with transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis, often requiring permanent pacing as the His-Purkinje system is affected. We present a case of left bundle branch pacing in a patient with transthyretin cardiac

Desmin variants: Trigger for cardiac arrhythmias?
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Desmin (DES) is a classical type III intermediate filament protein encoded by the DES gene. Desmin is abundantly expressed in cardiac, skeletal, and smooth muscle cells.

Electrocardiographic patch devices and contemporary wireless cardiac monitoring. [PDF]
, 2015 Cardiac electrophysiologic derangements often coexist with disorders of the circulatory system. Capturing and diagnosing arrhythmias and conduction system disease may lead to a change in diagnosis, clinical management and patient outcomes.
