ABSTRACT Background Left bundle branch block (LBBB) and right ventricular pacing (RVP) are associated with abnormal myocardial mechanics and cardiomyopathy. Consequently, chronic LBBB may increase the risk of heart failure and mortality in patients undergoing RVP.

In obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM), right ventricular pacing (RVP) can desynchronize the left ventricle to relieve outflow tract obstruction and allow control of atrioventricular delay (AVD), but may impair ventricular function. In twenty two patients with oHCM, a high‐precision RVP protocol quantified outflow tract gradient (LVOTg) and ...

Racial Differences in Length of Stay After Atrial Fibrillation Ablation
ABSTRACT Background Racial and sex disparities in catheter ablation (CA) utilization for atrial fibrillation (AF) have been documented. Less is known about race and sex differences in comorbidity burden and quality of care outcomes after CA. Objectives We sought to characterize racial and sex differences in patient and procedural characteristics and ...

Distribution of distinct topographies and their relationship with NYHA classes and therapies. Each of the 111 dots represents a distinct PVC topography recorded in the 12L‐AECGs. Black dots represent PVC associated with patients classified as NYHA class I, green dots with NYHA class II, and yellow dots with NYHA class III.
