Biventricular pacing in the early postoperative period after cardiac surgery.
Cardiac resynchronization therapy is not commonly used in the early postoperative period in patients undergoing cardiac surgery who have left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and a history of heart failure. We performed a prospective randomized clinical trial to compare atrial synchronous right ventricular (DDD RV) and biventricular (DDD BIV) pacing within 72 hours after cardiac surgery in patients...
متن کاملCardiac Resynchronization Therapy; Biventricular Pacing
Although the estimates from limited studies vary on the proportion of patients with heart failure who also have ventricular dyssynchrony as reflected by a prolonged QRS complex, often in the form of left bundle branch block, the number of such patients is large (27% to 53%) and it is certainly in excess of the rate for the general population. Among these patients, 10% to 15% are candidates for ...
متن کاملBiventricular pacing decreases sympathetic activity compared with right ventricular pacing in patients with depressed ejection fraction.
BACKGROUND Although there have been few studies in which the hemodynamic effects of right ventricular (RV) and left ventricular (LV) pacing were compared with those of biventricular (BV) pacing, the autonomic changes during these different pacing modes remain unknown. We hypothesized that BV pacing results in improved hemodynamics and a decrease in sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) compared with...
متن کاملProgression of heart failure in right univentricular pacing compared to biventricular pacing.
BACKGROUND Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) improves hemodynamics and symptoms of heart failure by reducing ventricular dyssynchronity. Conversely, recent studies have demonstrated that right univentricular pacing in patients with an ejection fraction below 40% aggravates heart failure. In this retrospective study, we compared progression of disease in patients with mild to moderate hear...
