Left Ventricular Dyssynchrony Parameters Measured by Phase Analysis of Post-stress and Resting Gated SPECT Myocardial Perfusion Imaging

World Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2013
Phase analysis has been validated to measure left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony from resting gated SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI). In 1-day rest/stress protocols, often only post-stress gated data are acquired.

Echocardiographic evaluation of cardiac dyssynchrony: Does it still matter?

, 2018
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an established treatment for patients with heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction. For many years, cardiac mechanical dyssynchrony assessed by echocardiography has been considered as a key ...

Effect of cardiac resynchronization therapy in patients without left intraventricular dyssynchrony

, 2012
AimsTo evaluate the effects of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) on long-term survival of patients without baseline left ventricular (LV) mechanical dyssynchrony.Methods and resultsA total of 290 heart failure patients (age 67 ± 10 years, 77% males)

Aneurysm of the muscular septum associated with Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome presenting as dilated cardiomyopathy; A report of two cases

Türk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2017
Summary– Muscular septal aneurysms are extremely rare without a ventricular septal defect and are diagnosed accidentally in most cases. Reported cases generally have rhythm disturbance or electrocardiographic findings of Wolf-Parkinson-White (WPW ...

Cardiac Electrical Dyssynchrony is Accurately Detected by Noninvasive Electrocardiographic Imaging

, 2018
Poor identification of electrical dyssynchrony is postulated to be a major factor contributing to the low success rate for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).

Pacing-Induced Dyssynchrony During Early Reperfusion Reduces Infarct Size [PDF]

, 2007
ObjectivesConsidering the recent discovery of postconditioning, we investigated whether intermittent dyssynchrony immediately upon reperfusion induces cardioprotection as well.BackgroundIntermittent dyssynchrony, induced by ventricular pacing ...

Preservation of contractile reserve of the free wall of the left ventricle one of the main predictors for response to cardiac resynchronization therapy

Бюллетень сибирской медицины, 2012
Score of the role of the contractile reserve of the left ventricular free wall in patients with ischemic and dilated cardiomyopathy was investigated for the selection of candidates for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).

Impact of right ventricular contractility on left ventricular dyssynchrony in patients with chronic systolic heart failure.

, 2011
International audienceBACKGROUND: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an important therapeutic approach for patients with symptomatic heart failure. The assessment of mechanical dyssynchrony, however, remains an issue.

Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Patients with Non-Ischemic Dilated Cardiomyopathy Who Undergo Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy: A Narrative Review

Diagnostics
Non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) represents a significant cause of heart failure, defined as the presence of left ventricular (LV) dilatation and systolic dysfunction unexplained solely by abnormal loading conditions or coronary artery disease ...
