Clinical endpoints in pragmatic heart failure trials: From data collection to clinical endpoint classification

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Clinical endpoint classification (CEC)—that is, evaluation of clinical events using pre‐defined criteria—is commonly conducted in clinical trial operations to ensure systematic and consistent assessment of endpoints needed to assess the intervention's safety and efficacy.

Patient‐specific modifiers of survival benefit in cardiac resynchronization therapy ‐ A multicentre interaction analysis

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a key intervention for patients with heart failure. The choice between a CRT with defibrillator therapy (CRT‐D) and a CRT with pacemaker (CRT‐P) is influenced by individual clinical characteristics.

Extracardiac compression of the inferolateral branch of the coronary vein by the descending aorta in a patient with dilated cardiomyopathy

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, 2017
Extracardiac structures can cause distortion of cardiac anatomy particularly in patients presenting with a significantly dilated heart, and/or thoracic deformities.

Echocardiographic estimation of acute haemodynamic response during optimization of multisite pace-maker using different pacing modalities and atrioventricular delays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background/Aim. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) improves ventricular dyssynchrony and is associated with an improvement in symptoms, quality of life and prognosis in patients with severe heart failure and intraventricular conduction delay ...

Two‐year outcomes of a cardiac microcurrent device in chronic heart failure: A first‐in‐human pilot study

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims In heart failure patients, altered myocardial electrical fields linked to oedema may impair left ventricular function. While short‐term use of implanted microcurrent generators (C‐MIC) has shown promise, long‐term effects remain unclear.

Mid-term feasibility and safety of downgrade procedure from defibrillator to pacemaker with cardiac resynchronization therapy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2019
Backgrounds: Some patients who undergo implantation of cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillator (CRT-D) survive long enough, thus requiring CRT-D battery replacement.

A randomized controlled trial of atrioventricular junction ablation and cardiac resynchronization therapy in patients with permanent atrial fibrillation and narrow QRS

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2018
Aims We tested the hypothesis that atrioventricular (AV) junction ablation in conjunction biventricular pacing [cardiac resynchronization (CRT)] pacing is superior to pharmacological rate-control therapy in reducing heart failure (HF) and hospitalization

Diagnostic value of computed tomography‐based muscle quality and metabolic signatures in heart failure with sarcopenia

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Sarcopenia is a major comorbidity in heart failure (HF) patients, but its comprehensive evaluation remains challenging due to resource limitations. Computed tomography (CT) imaging allows opportunistic assessment of both muscle quantity and quality; however, its diagnostic utility and relationships with physical performance and underlying

The interventricular conduction delays guide best cardiac resynchronization therapy: A tailored-patient approach to perform a CRT through Conduction System Pacing

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal
Evaluation of conduction intervals to predict success of resynchronization in biventricular pacing(BiVP) or Conduction System Pacing(CSP) is not spread in clinical practice. A right ventricle-to-left ventricle intrinsic conduction interval (RVs–LVs) > 70
