[Effect of the left ventricular pacing site on echocardiographic parameters of ventricular dyssynchrony in patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy].

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Cardiac resynchronization therapy has been shown to be an option in the treatment of patients with congestive heart failure. The current indication for this treatment is based on clinical and electrocardiographic criteria, although echocardiography has also been shown to be a useful tool for the diagnosis of ventricular dyssynchrony. The aim of this study was to asse...

Septal to posterior wall motion delay fails to predict reverse remodeling or clinical improvement in patients undergoing cardiac resynchronization therapy.

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that a longer septal-to-posterior wall motion delay (SPWMD) would predict greater reverse remodeling and an improved clinical response in heart failure patients randomized to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in the CONTAK-CD trial. BACKGROUND The SPWMD predicted clinical benefit with CRT in two previous studies from the same c...

Implementation of seven echocardiographic parameters of myocardial asynchrony to improve the long-term response rate of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT)

BACKGROUND Cardiac resynchronization Therapy (CRT) is an effective therapy for chronic heart failure with beneficial hemodynamic effects leading to a reduction of morbidity and mortality. The responder rates, however, are low. There are various and contentious echocardiographic parameters of myocardial asynchrony. Patient selection by echocardiographic assessment of asynchrony is thought to imp...

Right Atrial Pacing Impairs Cardiac Function During Resynchronization Therapy

OBJECTIVES We aimed to compare the hemodynamic effects of right-atrial-paced (DDD) and right-atrialsensed (VDD) biventricular paced rhythm on cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). BACKGROUND Cardiac resynchronization therapy improves hemodynamics in patients with severe heart failure and left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony. However, the impact of active right atrial pacing on resynchronizatio...

Echocardiographic quantification of left ventricular asynchrony predicts an acute hemodynamic benefit of cardiac resynchronization therapy.

OBJECTIVES We sought to determine whether radial left ventricular (LV) asynchrony in patients with heart failure predicts systolic function improvement with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). BACKGROUND We quantified LV wall motion by echocardiography to correlate the effects of CRT on LV systolic function with wall motion synchrony. METHODS Thirty-four patients underwent echocardiogr...
