“Unreasonable” ventricular pacings [PDF]
A 66‐year‐old man, implanted Abbott dual‐chamber pacemaker, was admitted to our hospital due to recurrent palpitation. ECG was recorded on admission, which created a diagnostic confusion: What accounts for the appearance of the VP in the setting of a stable intrinsic atrioventricular (AV) conduction? In this case, we will focus on the logical reasoning

The Story of Managed Ventricular Pacing [PDF]
A significant milestone in cardiac pacing occurred approximately two decades ago, when the primary operating mode was reimagined to more closely mimic normal top-down cardiac activation. When introduced, Managed Ventricular Pacing (MVP™; Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) was an unprecedented dual-chamber mode as it preferentially paced the right atrium ...

Endocardial left ventricular pacing [PDF]
AbstractCardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an effective treatment for dyssynchronous heart failure; however, 30–50% of patients fail to improve after implant. Endocardial left ventricular (LV) pacing is an alternative therapy for patients who do not respond to conventional CRT or in whom placement of a lead via the coronary sinus is not ...

Ventricular Pacing in Children [PDF]
Ventricular pacing in children. Ventricular pacing was performed in forty‐one children ranging from one day to twenty years of age (median age = 10). Weight of the recipient at implant ranged from 2 kg. to 86 kg. Indications included presyncope, syncope, dyspnea on exertion, congestive heart failure, postoperative infra‐Hisian heart block, and ...

Triangle ventricular pacing in a non-responder to conventional bi-ventricular pacing [PDF]
A 56-year-old man with cardiomyopathy secondary to myotonic dystrophy and complete atrioventricular block presented to our institution. A cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) device (InSync 8040, Medtronic, Inc., Minneapolis, MN, USA) was implanted by a conventional bi-ventricular pacing (Bi-V) technique.

Ventricular septal pacing: Optimum method to position the lead
Adverse hemodynamics of right ventricular (RV) pacing is known for years. Several studies have revealed that adverse outcomes of RV apical pacing are directly linked to cumulative percentage of ventricular pacing.

Ventricular pacing: to pace or not to pace [PDF]
Pacing from the right ventricular apex has been the clinical standard for decades but has recently come into question with a growing trend towards reducing ventricular pacing as much as possible. The earliest devices provided asynchronous ventricular pacing in patients whose indication for pacing was asystolic complete heart block. RV apical pacing was

Introduction Right ventricular apical pacing-related heart failure is reported in some patients after long-term pacing. The exact mechanism is not yet clear but may be related to left ventricular dyssynchrony induced by right ventricular apical pacing ...

Comparison of left ventricular and biventricular pacing: Rationale and clinical implications
Cardiac resynchronization therapy constitutes a cornerstone in advanced heart failure treatment, when there is evidence of dyssynchrony, especially by electrocardiography.

Minimizing hardware using physiological conduction system pacing: A case
Ventricular activation via the specialized His Purkinje system results in synchronous bi-ventricular contraction with an endocardial to epicardial activation wavefront.
