Identification of responders to cardiac resynchronization therapy by contractile reserve during stress echocardiography [PDF]
Aims The identification of responders to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) remains a challenge. We assessed the role of dyssynchrony (DYS) and contractile reserve (CR) in identifying CRT responders. Methods and results Sixty-nine patients (55% with

Abstract Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and chronic heart failure (HF) frequently coexist and, when comorbid, are associated with poorer outcomes. These two diseases have common risk factors, such as diabetes, obesity and hypertension, and common pathophysiological connected mechanisms, including inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, neurohormonal ...

Cardiac resynchronization therapy: Femoral approach
We describe the case of a 62-year-old female patient with bilateral subclavian vein occlusion, in whom a cardiac resynchronization system was implanted via a femoral vein.

Continuous optimization of cardiac resynchronization therapy reduces atrial fibrillation in heart failure patients: Results of the Adaptive Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Trial [PDF]
BackgroundData from randomized trials have suggested a modest or no effect of conventional cardiac resynchronization therapy (convCRT) on the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF).

The figure illustrates the study design and key findings related to right ventricular myocardial work (RVMW) in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients with and without pulmonary hypertension (PH). Patients were stratified into two groups: those with PH (n = 53) and those without PH (n = 49), as determined by right heart ...
