چکیده
BACKGROUND To explore the feasibility of a new method of achieving a permanent A-V block animal model. METHODS 16 beagles were randomly divided into two groups based on the method of their pre-implanted biventricular pacemakers. (1) In the first group (8 beagles), the A-V block model was achieved by ablating his-bundle potential at the site of the left ventricular superior-septum, under the aortic sinus, through femoral artery. (2) In the second group (8 beagles), the A-V block model was achieved by ablating his-bundle potential at the triangle of Koch, through femoral vein. A complete A-V block model was achieved as a standard in this study. The success rates, intraoperative arrhythmias, operative and X-ray exposure time, intraoperative bleeding amount were assessed in this two groups, both animal models were followed up for four weeks and then fasted to monitor myocardial pathological changes. RESULTS The success rate of the first group, which with fewer intraoperative arrhythmias, and less operative and X-ray exposure time, was significantly higher than the second group. CONCLUSIONS Compared with traditional animal method, our new method of ablating his-bundle potential at the left ventricle from the femoral artery has a higher success rate, fewer occurrence of malignant arrhythmias, and less operation and X-ray time. Thus, our new method should be preferred in the building of Permanent A-V Block Model.

[Permanent His-bundle pacing in patients with infra-Hisian atrioventricular block].
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Permanent His-bundle pacing is effective in patients with supra-Hisian atrioventricular block. We report our experience in patients with infra-Hisian atrioventricular block. METHODS The study involved selected patients referred for syncope and intraventricular conduction disturbance, infra-Hisian atrioventricular block, with left ventricular dyssynchrony and no cor...
متن کاملCardiac resynchronization improves coronary blood flow.
Asynchronous ventricular activation, induced by left bundle branch block, is known to have deleterious effects on the systolic and diastolic functions of the left ventricle (LV). Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has been proposed as a complementary method to improve the LV systolic performance by restoring the synchronized contraction patterns in patients with advanced heart failure and ...

Case Presentation: J.S., a 72-year-old man, was diagnosed with heart failure 5 years ago. Before that, he had suffered a large anterior myocardial infarction and had undergone successful coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. An internal cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) was implanted 3 years ago. He was hospitalized briefly for decompensated heart failure 9 months ago, and his medical regimen...
