Effects of dual-chamber pacing on regional myocardial deformation in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND This study examined the effects of dual-chamber pacing (DDD) on regional myocardial deformation, as determined by echocardiographic strain and strain rate (SR) imaging, in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). METHODS AND RESULTS Fourteen patients (11 men, 3 women; mean age 55 +/-16 years) who had been on long-term DDD (mean period 7.4 +/- 2.1 years) underwe...

متن کاملLong-term follow-up impact of dual-chamber pacing on patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND Pacing has been proposed as a treatment for patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), but there are few studies with long-term follow-up. We evaluated the long-term effects of dual-chamber pacing therapy for patients with HOCM, and to identify the most prognosis-specific factors for predicting outcome in such treating methods. METHODS A total of 37 HOCM patients...
متن کاملComparison of Long-Term Effect of Dual-Chamber Pacing and Alcohol Septal Ablation in Patients with Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy
INTRODUCTION Nonpharmacological treatment of patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) comprises surgical myectomy (SME), alcohol septal ablation (ASA), and dual-chamber (DDD) pacing. The aim of the study was to compare the long-term effect of DDD pacing and ASA in symptomatic HOCM patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS We evaluated retrospective data from three cardiocenters; ther...
متن کاملEvidence for anti-ischemic effect of dual-chamber pacing in patients with the obstructive form of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Dual-chamber pacing reportedly improves the quality of life by reducing the frequency of anginal episodes in selected patients with the obstructive form of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), although the underlying mechanism or coronary effect is poorly understood. We report 3 patients with obstructive HCM, in whom the effects of atrial vs. dual-chamber tachypacing on systemic hemodynamics and ...
