Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators (ICDs) are important in the prevention of sudden cardiac death. However, some appropriate ICD therapies may be considered unnecessary, delivered when patients do not experience symptoms of hemodynamic instability such as loss of consciousness.

Strategies to improve cardiac resynchronization therapy
, 2014 Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) emerged 2 decades ago as a useful form of device therapy for heart failure associated with abnormal ventricular conduction, indicated by a wide QRS complex.

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Conduction system pacing (CSP) is an emerging new method of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), however, one third of patients with left bundle branch block (LBBB) have distal conduction disease, which is not amenable to correction with CSP. There is an emerging need for tailored analysis of ventricular depolarization patterns for patient

Hemodynamic benefit of rest and exercise optimization of cardiac resynchronization therapy
, 2014 The optimal method of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) optimization is as yet unknown. We sought to investigate the responses of optimization at rest and on exercise.

QT Interval Evaluation in Right Ventricular Pacing: Validation of a Novel Formula
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.Abstract Background QT interval measurement in the presence of right ventricular pacing (RVP) represents a clinical challenge. We therefore aimed to derive and validate a formula for QT estimation during RVP in a large cohort of pacemaker patients. Methods and Results We prospectively enrolled 100 patients in a derivation cohort and 487 in a validation

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Preprocedural imaging can improve the success rate of ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation. Left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT) measured by cardiac computed tomography (CT) can be used to identify infarct regions. We sought to determine whether an association exists between left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT) as obtained ...

[Is echocardiography still helpful in cardiac resynchronization therapy?]
, 2015 Cardiac resynchronization therapy is an established approach for the treatment of patients with heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction. In most centers, these patients are usually evaluated by echocardiography, which allows collecting a ...
