Introduction. Right ventricular myocardial pacing leads to asynchronous contraction of the left ventricle (LV) and can impair its contractility over time.

Background In patients with triple valve replacement developing third-degree atrioventricular block (AVB), the most appropriate approach for permanent pacemaker implantation remains questionable.

Coordinated and harmonic (synchronous) ventricular electrical activation is essential for better left ventricular systolic function. Intraventricular conduction abnormalities, such as left bundle branch block due to artificial cardiac pacing, lead to ...

Right ventricular (RV) pacing has been reported to result in ventricular dyssynchrony, heart failure, and increased mortality. Pacing associated deterioration of left ventricular (LV) systolic function has been termed pacing-induced cardiomyopathy (PICM).

Physiological cardiac pacing: Current status
Adverse hemodynamics of right ventricular (RV) pacing is a well-known fact. It was believed to be the result of atrio-ventricular (AV) dyssynchrony and sequential pacing of the atrium and ventricle may solve these problems.

Shortening of the Short Refractory Periods in Short QT Syndrome. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Diagnosis of short QT syndrome (SQTS) remains difficult in case of borderline QT values as often found in normal populations. Whether some shortening of refractory periods (RP) may help in differentiating SQTS from normal subjects is unknown.

Sudden failure of ventricular pacing and recovery in a patient with cardiac sarcoidosis
A 76-year-old woman with sarcoidosis who had an implantable pacemaker for complete atrioventricular block was admitted with syncope. Electrocardiogram revealed ventricular pacing failure, and a marked rise in the ventricular pacing threshold.

Cardiac Memory-induced T-wave Inversions [PDF]
Introduction: Cardiac memory refers to T-wave inversions that result when normal ventricular activation resumes following a period of abnormal ventricular activation.Case Report: We present a case of a 29-year-old man with a pacemaker who presented with ...

The patient was a 67-year-old female diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy. She had chronic atrial fibrillation (AF) with bradycardia and low left ventricular function (left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) 40%). She was admitted for congestive heart
