Superresponse to Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy [PDF]

Circulation, 2014
Case presentation : A 55-year-old female patient underwent implantation of a cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) defibrillator 6 years ago owing to nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy. Her left-ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) was 28% before implantation, her LV end-diastolic volume index (EDVI) was 144 mL/m2, and her LV end-systolic volume ...

Left bundle cardiac resynchronization therapy versus left bundle optimized cardiac resynchronization therapy [PDF]

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal
Background: In patients undergoing left bundle branch area pacing for cardiac resynchronization therapy (LB-CRT), addition of a coronary sinus lead i.e. Left bundle optimized CRT (LOT-CRT) might confer additional benefit.

Cardiac resynchronization therapy

Journal of Cardiac Arrhythmias, 2018
Coronary venous anatomy can make successful implantation of a cardiac resynchronization therapy device difficult or impossible. The aim of this review is introduce an interventional approach with many techniques and tools that are needed to be learned ...

Cardiac resynchronization therapy [PDF]

IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine, 2005
The rhythm of each heart beat is controlled by electrical pulses. These signals coordinate and synchronize the contraction of the atria and of the ventricles. They also provide the electrical sequence of activation that causes the ventricles to contract in a coordinated manner. In heart failure, this electrical sequence of activation is distorted A new

Assessment Patient s’ Knowledge and Practice Regarding Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Device in outpatient clinic at the National Heart Institute. [PDF]

Helwan International Journal for Nursing Research and Practice, 2023
Background: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) uses a device called a biventricular pacemaker that sends electrical signals to both lower chambers of the heart (ventricles).

Ischemic Etiology and Clinical Outcomes Following Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy

Medicina, 2020
Optimal patient selection for cardiac resynchronization therapy is crucial. There are several concerns that allow to better clarify the association between the ischemic etiology of heart failure and the response to cardiac resynchronization therapy.

Predictive value of left atrial remodeling for response to cardiac resynchronization therapy

Journal of Ultrasonography, 2022
Response to cardiac resynchronization therapy varies significantly among patients, with one third of them failing to demonstrate left ventricular reverse remodeling after cardiac resynchronization therapy.

Overview of Current Strategies Aiming at Improving Response to Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy

Anatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2022
Cardiac resynchronization therapy is a treatment modality developed in the early 2000s that targets the mechanical and electrical dyssynchrony in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction patients. Appropriate patient selection conditions specified in
