For the past two decades, catheter ablation stole most of the excitement in electrophysiology. Cardiac pacing was seen as necessary but boring. His-bundle pacing earned only modest attention. But at ...
Cardiac physiologic pacing, also known as cardiac resynchronization therapy, is indicated in patients with heart failure, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 50% or less, and either a ...
Atropine is often considered a first-line intervention for unstable bradycardia. Unfortunately, atropine often fails when the bradycardia is not vagally-induced and is not indicated for high-level ...
A novel bipolar conduction system pacing implantable cardioverter defibrillator lead demonstrated short-term safety and ...
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 ...
Estimates suggest that around three million Americans are living with cardiac pacemakers, according to the American Heart Association. Now, thanks to MountainStar Healthcare, a new kind of pacemaker – ...
Cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) constitute a major breakthrough in the management of heart rhythm disorders. These devices largely include bradycardia pacemakers, biventricular ...
Personalized accelerated pacing at 75 bpm showed a reduction in adverse clinical events in HFpEF patients compared to standard 60 bpm pacing. The per-protocol analysis indicated significantly fewer ...
Study to evaluate whether a new approach to pacing the heart can improve the lives of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) who have limited treatment options today ...
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 ...
