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

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

European experience with a first totally leadless cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker system
Aims Totally leadless cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) can be delivered with a combination of Micra and WiSE-CRT systems. We describe the technical feasibility and first insights into the safety and efficacy of this combination in European ...

Prognostic implications of left ventricular global longitudinal strain in heart failure patients with narrow QRS complex treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy: a subanalysis of the randomized EchoCRT trial [PDF]
Aim: Left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) reflects LV systolic function and correlates inversely with the extent of LV myocardial scar and fibrosis.

Septal flash : at the heart of cardiac dyssynchrony [PDF]
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has been a major step in the treatment of heart failure patients and intraventricular conduction delay. As a considerable number of patients do not respond adequately to CRT, echocardiographic dyssynchrony ...

Techniques for Identification of Left Ventricular Asynchrony for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in Heart Failure [PDF]
The most recent treatment option of medically refractory heart failure includes cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) by biventricular pacing in selected patients in NYHA functional class III or IV heart failure. The widely used marker to indicate left

Transseptal approach to the implantation of cardiac resynchronization therapy [PDF]
Introduction. In patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy left ventricular lead is usually placed through a tributary vein of the coronary sinus.
