Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy: An Established Pacing Therapy for Heart Failure and Mechanical Dyssynchrony

, 2012
In recent decades, the prevalence of heart failure has steadily increased and can be considered a contemporary cardiovascular epidemic. Therefore, treatment of heart failure is a primary focus of cardiovascular disease management strategies.

Multipoint Pacing Versus Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in Heart Failure: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Multipoint pacing (MPP) delivers sequential stimuli from multiple left‐ventricular electrodes, potentially improving cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) response versus conventional biventricular pacing (BiV). We performed an updated systematic review and meta‐analysis to synthesize contemporary evidence.

Safety and Performance of INVICTA DF4 Ventricular Defibrillation Lead: Results From APOLLO Prospective Multicenter Study

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator (ICD) therapy relies on reliable right ventricular leads for pacing, sensing, and defibrillation. The INVICTA DF4 lead is an active‐fixation, quadripolar design intended to optimize implant workflow and long‐term safety and performance. Methods APOLLO was a prospective, multicenter, single‐arm,

Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes: Pathophysiological mechanisms and opportunities for multiscale computational modelling and simulation

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Overview of multiscale cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes and how to model and simulate these changes using a human‐based, multiscale computational framework. Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes occurs at ionic channel, protein, cellular, tissue and whole‐organ level, affecting the electrophysiological function, mechanical

Effects of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy on Cardiac Remodeling and Contractile Function: Results From Resynchronization Reverses Remodeling in Systolic Left Ventricular Dysfunction (REVERSE)

, 2015
International audienceBackground Cardiac resynchronization therapy results in improved ejection fraction in patients with heart failure. We sought to determine whether these effects were mediated by changes in contractility, afterload, or volumes ...

The influence of delayed ventricular activation on cardiac repolarization: Insights from electrocardiographic imaging

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This study examines the relationships between activation and repolarization times in epicardial reconstructed unipolar electrograms derived from ECG‐imaging in patients with normal and delayed ventricular activation. In patients with a narrow QRS‐complex, ECG‐imaging reveals significant variability in the activation ...

ECG patterns in cardiac resynchronization therapy

, 2015
Cardiac resynchronization therapy is an established treatment modality in heart failure. Though non-response is a serious issue. To address this issue, a good understanding of the electrical activation during underlying intrinsic ventricular activation ...

Evaluation of Left Ventricular Endocardial Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in a Non-responder with Ventricular Arrhythmias

, 2014
Approximately one third of patients treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy do not derive any detectable benefit. In these patients, acute invasive hemodynamic evaluation can be used for therapy optimization.
