Biventricular pacing is an excellent option for certain patients with advanced HF. Also known as “cardiac resynchronization therapy,” biventricular pacing has been shown to improve HF symptoms in a ...

Discordant results from two trials comparing conduction system pacing with biventricular pacing for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) leave open the question of whether conduction system pacing ...

January 27, 2006-- Patients with conventional right ventricular pacemakers who develop severe heart failure may benefit from an upgrade to a biventricular pacing (BVP) system. The results of the small ...

The BLOCK HF trial demonstrated that, during continual cardiac pacing, adverse left ventricular remodelling and deterioration of systolic function occurred more frequently with right ventricular than ...

Multicenter randomized trial (n=200) assigned LBBP versus BiVP for CRT in LBBB with LVEF ≤35%, using time to death or HF hospitalization as primary endpoint. Event rates favored LBBP, reducing death ...

Researchers at Texas Heart Institute (THI) and UCLA crossed a significant milestone in the development of wirelessly powered, leadless pacemakers. In an article in the Nature Research journal ...

Ablation plus cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) is superior to pharmacological rate control in reducing mortality in severely symptomatic permanent atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with a ...

Patients with indications for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) have better clinical outcomes when they undergo left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) rather than conventional biventricular ...

Researchers at Texas Heart Institute (THI) and UCLA crossed a significant milestone in the development of wirelessly powered, leadless pacemakers. In an article in the Nature Research journal ...

To the Editor: Yu et al. (Nov. 26 issue) 1 found that among patients with bradycardia, the left ventricular ejection fraction at 12 months was 7 percentage points lower in the patients who were ...
