Utilisation of the snare technique for left ventricular lead placement in a patient with persistent left superior vena cava

Revista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2018
Persistence of the left superior vena cava occurs in about 0.3-0.7% of the general population. It is of particular importance in patients who need cardiac resynchronisation therapy.

Tailoring cardiac resynchronisation therapy to non-left bundle branch block: Successful cardiac resynchronisation for right bundle branch block with left posterior fascicular block without implantation of a left ventricular lead

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2022
Despite advances, cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) remains fundamentally orientated to the dyssynchrony of left bundle branch block (LBBB), in which septo-lateral electrical and mechanical delays predominate.

Clinical Utility of HeartLogic, a Multiparametric Telemonitoring System, in Heart Failure

Cardiac Failure Review, 2022
Telemonitoring through multiple variables measured on cardiac devices has the potential to improve the follow-up of patients with heart failure. The HeartLogic algorithm (Boston Scientific), implemented in some implantable cardiac defibrillators and ...

Recurrence of LV Thrombus in a Patient with Severe Ischaemic Cardiomyopathy Anticoagulated with Apixaban

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2022
Background. Anticoagulation with warfarin remains the mainstay treatment for left ventricular thrombi. Although successful thrombus resolution has been reported with direct oral anticoagulants’ (DOACs’) recurrence/progression while resuming Apixaban ...

Severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction after permanent pacemaker implantation: Should we pause before upgrading to biventricular pacing?

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2019
Left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction leading to heart failure (HF) is known to occur after permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) in a subset of patients.

The saga of dyssynchrony imaging: Are we getting to the point

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) has an established role in the management of patients with heart failure, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF < 35%) and widened QRS (>130 msec).
