Imaging predictors of response to cardiac resynchronization therapy: left ventricular work asymmetry by echocardiography and septal viability by cardiac magnetic resonance

European Heart Journal, 2020
Aims  Left ventricular (LV) failure in left bundle branch block is caused by loss of septal function and compensatory hyperfunction of the LV lateral wall (LW) which stimulates adverse remodelling.

Remote Hemodynamic‐Guided Therapy of Patients With Recurrent Heart Failure Following Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy

Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background Patients with recurring heart failure (HF) following cardiac resynchronization therapy fare poorly. Their management is undecided. We tested remote hemodynamic‐guided pharmacotherapy.

Adverse impact of univentricular pacing for the patient with functional single ventricle: successful conversion to cardiac resynchronization therapy

Surgical Case Reports, 2020
Background In a Fontan candidate, univentricular pacing may cause delay in interventricular conduction, which induces asynchronous contraction. Cardiac resynchronization therapy is expected to be an effective mode of therapy in such a case.

Single beat determination of intraventricular systolic dyssynchrony in paitents with atrial fibrillation and systolic dysfunction [PDF]

, 2013
Background:: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common clinically significant cardiac arrhythmia. However, diagnosis of intraventricular dyssynchrony in patients with AF is difficult due to beat-to-beat variation. Additionally, evaluation of mechanical

Cardiac resynchronization treatment in a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy after heart transplantation

Türk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2013
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is characterized by heterogeneous clinical expression. Cardiac transplantation continues to be the gold standard for the treatment of end-stage cardiac diseases refractory to medical therapy.

Predictors of short-term clinical response to cardiac resynchronization therapy [PDF]

, 2017
Aims: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) reduces morbidity and mortality in patients with symptomatic heart failure and QRS prolongation but there is uncertainty about which patient characteristics predict short-term clinical response.

Early indication of decompensated heart failure in patients on home-telemonitoring: a comparison of prediction algorithms based on daily weight and noninvasive transthoracic bio-impedance [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Heart Failure (HF) is a common reason for hospitalization. Admissions might be prevented by early detection of and intervention for decompensation. Conventionally, changes in weight, a possible measure of fluid accumulation, have been used to
